Don't Believe the Hype

In an interview with the Voice of America yesterday, Joint Chiefs Chairman Peter Pace said he did not believe that the Iranian government was behind the distribution of roadside bombs to insurgents in Iraq.

This morning on CNN Gen. William Caldwell, the spokesman for the Multi-National Force in Iraq, disputed the Bush administration's claims that the government of Iran is supplying weapons to Iraqi insurgents:
I think people want to make an inference. I think people want to hype this up.
The Bush administration? Hype up weapons evidence? I don't believe it. Not for a minute.

Ahem.

The President has scheduled a press conference for 11am ET this morning. I certainly hope someone has the cajones to put this question to him.
