"Iraq has failed to meet all but three of 18 congressionally mandated benchmarks for political and military progress, according to a draft of a Government Accountability Office report. The document questions whether some aspects of a more positive assessment by the White House last month adequately reflected the range of views the GAO found within the administration.
"The person who provided the draft report to The [Washington]Post said it was being conveyed from a government official who feared that its pessimistic conclusions would be watered down in the final version -- as some officials have said happened with security judgments in this month's National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq."
And now it seems that the Pentagon is going to present a "Chinese menu" of a report to Der Monkey Fuhrer, so he can pick and choose the recommendations he happens to agree with.
And everybody who is surprised about this, get a clue.
