If you want to bring GW into the conversation now ..Ok ..If the CIA told President Bush very bluntly "NO WMD's" why and more importantly how could Powell spent four days and nights in a CIA conference room with top officials of the CIA trying to ensure the accuracy of the presentation..and then the CIA tell the President something different at the same time? That would mean the CIA was telling the President something different, than Colin Powell at the same time and that President GWBush did not tell Powell the CIA was lying to him..that's a pretty good stretch ..and one I would have to see the proof to believe.
