Wolfie outfoxes the 9-11 Commission

TAPPED quotes a remarkable exchange at yesterday's hearing. Wolfowitz is asked directly if he had argued that Iraq should be attacked in response to the September 11 attacks. Not wanting to perjure himself, and explaining that he hadn't had a chance to read Richard Clarke's book, he proceeds to go on a circuitous riff on bin Laden, Hitler, Mein Kampf...and the clock ran out on the commissioner who had asked the question.

Looking skyward, the commissioner exclaimed, "Damn you, Paul Wolfowitz!"
