Expectations of the Survey Group's report, expected in the next two weeks, may have been raised by administration officials who, when facing a clamor over the failure to find weapons of mass destruction early in the summer, called for patience and expressed confidence that the group led by former UNSCOM official David Kay would prove the existence of such weapons.
