“On Monday, February 2 [2004], after a cabinet meeting, a reporter asked the president [Bush], ‘Do you think the country is owed an explanation about the Iraq intelligence failure before the election so voters have this information when they elect a new president?’ ‘First of all, I want to know all the facts,’ Bush said, noting that they were not all in, and he did not answer the question.”
