No, I believe it's a combiniton of three things:
One, the fact that he has been at war with the CIA since 2003 and, coorespondingly, intelligence like this is very difficult to lay out before the public. It usually must be taken on trust that the CIA did it's job correctly. For example, testimony from a source needs to coaborated by other sources to be considered valid enough to be taken seriously. And at this point, the CIA is rather lacking in the credibility department so Bush is probably afraid of getting burned by them.
Two, is thewell-known fact the the massive amounts of intelligence taken in Iraq since Saddams overthrow is taking a long, long time to be processed.
Three, the Bush administration is abolutely pisspoor at communication. Arrogance or incompetence--take your pick.
