CIA Pressure
On Wolf Blitzer's show today on CNN he said that the senate intelligence committee's finding #85 (Phase 1 of the investigation) stated that there is no evidence that Cheney (or anyone from his office) put pressure on any CIA officer to cook the evidence on Iraq's WMD capabilities. This cannot right because I remember hearing that in fact Cheney and others did put pressure on the CIA to give them the evidence they wanted.

Anyone have a link regarding CIA agents feeling the pressure from the administration to give them WMD evidence the WH wanted. And if so, why did the senate intelligence committee report say there was no pressure?

2. I have read quite a bit of that report.
If I recall correctly, that was one point on which the Dems and Reps could not agree. It may have said that in the initial report, but then addendums were written by each side. The Dem addendum stated they did not agree with that finding or wanted it investigated more thoroughly.
