Cherry Picked Intelligence

Former top (28 years) CIA official Paul R. Pillar states that the Bush administration "cherry picked" intelligence to make its case for war with Iraq. He was the intelligence officer for the far east.
He also stated that the intelligence was used to politicize the case for war. I.E. "They are going to meet us in the streets with flowers".....
One year into the war was the first time that he was asked for a post war assessment by the Bush administration.
