Study says violence in Iraq has been underreported


Now, I am beginning to understand the reality which caused GWHB to sob on stage in Florida. I am sure he knew what this report said before the rest of us.

This is just one more impeachable offense.

McClatchy Washington Bureau 12/06/2006 Study says violence in Iraq has been underreported:

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration routinely has underreported the level of violence in Iraq in order to disguise its policy failings, the Iraq Study Group report said Wednesday.
The bipartisan group called on the Pentagon and the director of the U.S. intelligence community to immediately institute a new reporting system that provides 'a more accurate picture of events on the ground.'

The finding bolsters allegations by Democratic lawmakers and other critics that the Bush administration has withheld or misconstrued intelligence that conflicted with its Iraq policy while promoting data and claims that supported its positions.
