On July 29, 2003, CIA chief weapons inspector in Iraq David Kay briefed President Bush and his cabinet on his findings. “Kay tried to be gentle…But he couldn’t avoid the bottom line: He had found nothing. …But the president seemed disengaged. ‘I’m not sure that I’ve spoken to anyone at that level who seemed less inquisitive,’ Kay recalled…’I cannot stress too much,’ he subsequently remarked, ‘that the president was the one in the room who was the least unhappy and the least disappointed about the lack of WMDs.’ ”
