This story has a few layers of mold on it it's so old. But the way I recall
it, Wilson told the 9/11 commission (and the CIA) one thing, and told
exactly the opposite to others and in his op-ed. No doubt the Bush
administration read his op-ed and said "Huh?" and decided to
release portions of the NIE about 10 days sooner than the full release to
counteract the stories being told. I say good for them.
