The war started with lies

Repeating that lie hasn't made it true yet, and it won't. But just for
entertainment purposes, why not cite us one of those lies?

On Thursday, President Bush claimed that: "Nearly 100,000 fully trained and
equipped Iraqi soldiers, police officers, and other security personnel are
working today." *- President Bush, Press Conference, Sept. 23, 2004

However, the Pentagon said last Monday that of these ³nearly 100,000 fully
trained and equipped Iraqi soldiers² only about 53,000 Iraqi troops have
undergone training.

In addition, Reuters reports that of the nearly 90,000 Iraqis currently in
the police force, only 8,169 have had the full eight-week academy training.
And it will be July 2006 before the administration's new goal of 135,000
fully trained police is met.

Did you ever stop to think that there were some trained Iraqi soldiers
before the war started? We did not kill them all you know. Do you
think that the Pentagon might have meant that we have only trained
53K?

Nope. I think Bush is cooking the books. Or else he just screwed up.
After all, math is hard work.

Did you try reading about this from more than one source? Me thinks
not. Do some more research. You might finally draw a correct
conclusion. Then again, being the liberal that you are, it's doubtful.
