Roberts told reporters this week that the inquiry is about 95 percent
done and a draft report could be circulated among panel members
shortly.

But Rockefeller said the investigation "is far from completed."

"We have not gotten into the use of intelligence," he told reporters.

"We are going to do that one way or another, I guarantee you, because
that's absolutely fundamental to this whole thing."

WASHINGTON -

Democrats said Friday that a Senate inquiry into prewar intelligence
is ignoring questions about whether the Bush administration misused
the intelligence.

The Senate Intelligence Committee's top Democrat, Sen. Jay
Rockefeller, said he believes committee Chairman Pat Roberts, R-Kan.,
wants to place all responsibility for problems on the intelligence
agencies "and never get to any other branches of government, in
particular the White House" and related agencies.

Roberts was traveling in Kansas and his spokeswoman did not
immediately return calls seeking comment.
