Reply #3: the most egregious case of poor listening skills I've seen in a long time [View All]

[Cocoa]

Snow so completely and stupidly misrepresented what Levin said, that Levin was cofused. Could Snow actually be this stupid:

SNOW: OK. If that's the case, how do you explain his behavior -- stonewalling inspectors, acting in a deliberately provocative way toward the United States, basically kicking inspectors out? What on earth, if a guy did not have those weapons, would lead him to embark upon such a path?

LEVIN: The only thing I can think of -- and God knows, nobody can get inside the mind of a Saddam Hussein. The only thing I can think of would be that he thought that if we believed he had weapons of mass destruction that perhaps we would not attack him.

SNOW: So, in other words, he had bad intelligence?

LEVIN: I -- he had what intelligence?

SNOW: You're saying he may have believed he had weapons that he didn't have?
