From Today's wire services:
"The proposed new war spending for fiscal 2006, which starts Oct. 1, would push the cost of the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and its aftermath toward $250 billion, far ahead of initial expectations voiced by the Bush administration. Before the invasion, then-White House economic advisor Larry Lyndsey said a conflict with Iraq could cost $100 billion to $200 billion. Then-budget director Mitch Daniels dismissed Lindsey's figures as too high. Lindsey resigned in December 2002."
This is exactly what happened to General Shinseki.
Democrats need to start telling the public every day about this pattern of deliberate deception.

The Democrats who demanded an explanation for that memo I posted about is the kind of thing they need to do all the time.
This administration is all about concentration of power in the executive, distortion of the constitution, and illegal avoidance of legitimate Congressional oversight responsibilities.
And all of it under the cover a nationalist rhetoric designed to appeal to the base fears and insticts of the mob. Surely the Romans have produced some elloquent condemnation of this political strategy.
