In advance of Chalabi's visit, liberal Rep. George Miller (D) said on the House floor on Monday, "Madam Speaker, somebody ought to call the cops. No, I am not talking about Scooter Libby or Karl Rove... I am talking about another shadowy character and administration ally, someone whose deception played a large role in leading the United States into war in Iraq... Mr. Chalabi is the Deputy Prime Minister of Iraq's newly constituted government. But Mr. Chalabi also is a convicted bank swindler who, we now know, fed the Bush administration false intelligence about Saddam's weapons of mass destruction and capabilities and Iraq's ties to terrorism."
