Senator Boxer joins DSM fray
(Hat tip to ?? for spotting this. I think it was at DU but I can't locate it now. Sorry.)
On Tuesday, June 7th, during the Senate Confirmation Hearing on Zalmay Khalilzad to be Ambassador to Iraq, Senator Barbara Boxer raised the Downing Street Minutes (aka Memo) and asked that the document be inserted in the Congressional Record.
At this writing the link is available on the front page of the C-SPAN website. It will probably only be available via CSPAN for a couple of weeks - I'll see if I can locate a more permanent archive video, or at least the transcript.
Senator Boxer starts speaking at about 1:45:00 into the C-SPAN video clip, and begins talking about DSM at about 1:49:00. After responses from the nominee she asks for the DSM to be included in the record of the committee hearing.
