Summary: A New Hampshire Union Leader editorial falsely claimed that "Sen. Hillary Clinton said Gen. David Petraeus' troop surge in Iraq is working." In fact, Clinton said that changed tactics -- "particularly in Al Anbar province" -- are "working," not the "surge." The editorial added that Clinton "previously (in March and again in May) noted the surge's successes"; while Clinton has previously acknowledged progress in Al Anbar, that progress reportedly began months before the "surge" did.
