David Kay to leave Iraq weapons hunt. As mentioned in an earlier W&P post. Indeed, Kay may not even return to Iraq from Christmas break back in the Washington suburbs.

--"When [Kay] accepted the job in June...he expected to quickly find the expansive evidence that the administration had claimed as its primary reason for going to war," the WP reports. "Rather, Kay's preliminary report in October said the group had so far discovered only that Iraq was working to acquire chemical and biological weapons, had missile programs under various stages of development and possessed only a rudimentary nuclear program."
