For months, we’ve all wondered who this ‘Curveball’ is who fed the U.S. intelligence community bogus information that helped lead us into this disaster in Iraq. Now the truth comes out: he is Rafid Ahmed Alwan, who did study chemical engineering but made poor grades’. Poor grades, eh? One wonders if Mr. Alwan’s grades were as poor as those of George W. Bush.

Dr. Ron Paul Takes On Secretary Rice Over Iran Attack
Eccentric or just flakey?
Update: a bit longer clip is available here. Soledad O'Brian, filling in on CNN 360, just introduced a clip of her new interview of Dr. Paul by invoking the proverbial "some say," with "Ron Paul is eccentric, others say he's just flakey."

He said that if the US would back off it would remove...

"Law enforcement was responsible for the chain of events here," De Furia said. "I think in situations like this, officers become so frustrated they go beyond what the law allows them to do." ...
