10. Other countries see this headline too.
Other countries, especially those in the Middle East, see more accurate news than we do. They hear directly from people who have been in Iraq or are still there.

What do they think when this adminstration stands up a delivers a whitewash of a speech like this one? Do they think he's insane? Or lying? And/or that we're idiots to repeatedly accept these distortions?

I'm not watching news, but I'll wonder if ANY media outlet will analyze this speech and compare it to the little we do know about conditions in Iraq. Last night...reports of uprisings in other cities...reports of abject wretchedness in the streets with body parts and corpses...reports of the last hospital being destroyed...reports of conditions in general being described as a disaster.

Will Tim Russert tomorrow talk about what a cruel lie this speech is or the Peterson case?
