So the grisly display was damage control in attempt to reassure those doubting American voters. Too bad all the Iraqis who are organized to resist the US occupation aren't just limited to Saddam loyalists. It is bound to complicate that simple good guys vs the bad guys game plan.
But what the hey - they'll simply lie, like they always do. Even when they are called on their lies, they just continue spouting them---as if the revelation of the truth simply had no bearing whatsoever.

And it is amazing that so many Democrats seem to buy that any criticism of Bush isn't what the voters want to hear, and try to out-macho Bush, instead of pointing out the non-heroic reality for American soldiers who are trapped in that hell-hole. Instead they let this AWOL punk, clueless about foreign affairs, who dropped the ball on the pre-911 growing terrorist threat, who has underfunded homeland security, slashed veteran benefits, waged an illegal attack on a country based on stroked-up threats which increase further security threats and destroyed our international standing and credibility, get away with charging the Democrats as being "weak" on defense issues.
