Rice comes clean on Iraq?

Just a weird little article on the Rice's testimony to the senate. Sorry for the Wash Times sourcing(I know) but that's where I came across the quote in the second para. If you were a Senator who read the intelligence supplied by the administration which showed Iraq had a nuclear program and voted for the resolution based on that, how would you feel when the quote in the second para passed Rice's lips knowing what we (officially) know now?

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said yesterday that it was always the Bush administration's intent to redesign the Middle East after the September 11 attacks, which exposed a "deep malignancy growing" in the region, and that the Iraq war was part of that plan. .....

"We had to make a decision that we were going to go after the root cause of what caused September 11," she said. "So what I'm describing to you, Senator, is not what you voted for in the war resolution, but the broader strategy of the administration."
