On the contrary, more than half of the quotations were from 2002, by very 
non-Straussian politicians. In addition, the quotations from 1998 occurred 
either near or after the inspectors left Iraq, so the concerns expressed 
were based on information that remained the same all the way to last year, 
when the inspectors returned.
