Thanks for the response. This is something that came out in the press about a week ago:

This is what prompted my questions; it seems there is a great possibility for someone, somewhere on the intelligence food chain to sway the ultimate decision by POTUS by just burying data. In the case in the article, it didn't really matter; Bush was going to put the US into a war in Iraq no matter what anyone found about Iraq's alleged WMDs. As they say. truth is the first casualty of war...
