1. Heat is a big factor in a lower cas count. |

Packing all that gear around in 130 degree heat will kill you all by itself.
You can bet the number and duration of patrols is way down.

2. As things become more desperate, |

the lies become more and more outrageous. Watch big time Fairy Tales being concocted by Washington in the next few weeks.
They're preparing some desperate distortions for September, when the Sands of the Hourglass have run out. Bush will appear before Congress and we know how that will go.
They really have no choice, because they've been on this path for a long time. They're trapped in their own huge enormous lies.
Over time, they get more flagrant because they have to keep moving forward.
