Bush and Co. still distorting facts about Iraq


If only George Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld hated war as much as they hate admitting a mistake. To hear them tell it, Iraq is a success story and the Guantanamo prison is a tropical paradise.

Last week the defense secretary and his top generals went to Capitol Hill to report on the state of the war. The situation looks pretty grim on the evening news, but Rumsfeld assured members of the Senate Armed Services Committee that we're winning the war and that success "cannot be defined by domestic tranquility," a reference to the bloody chaos in much of Iraq.

1. We need to cut our troop count to 40,000 AND tell the Iraqi that

we are pulling out as soon as the electric and water is up to pre-war standards and then we hit the road.

This will reduce the daily KIA count and with the pulling of troop show the Iraqis we are really going to leave.
