Supporting the Generals

What they really mean is supporting Bush. Can we cut the crap now?

Despite Bush's repeated statements that the report will reflect evaluations by Petraeus and Ryan Crocker, the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, administration officials said it would actually be written by the White House, with inputs from officials throughout the government.

And though Petraeus and Crocker will present their recommendations on Capitol Hill, legislation passed by Congress leaves it to the president to decide how to interpret the report's data.

That report is going to be just swell!

No one in this administration has any credibility left and therefore no one should pay attention to anything they have to say.
