Condi: "I'll be perfectly honest, I think we had in the first phase and maybe even a few weeks after the end of major military operations, some problems of co-ordination . . . We learned that we had some problems of information flow, that things were not working as smoothly as they might have."

If she were perfectly honest she would say: "To be perfectly honest we talked George into this adventure so we could snatch the oil but we really, really screwed up our plan for the reconstruction. In fact we never had a plan, it was more of a faith-based thing".
