BUSH MISLEADS ON CASUALTIES IN IRAQ

The president has told the American people that he expected persistent violence in Iraq. On Feb. 8th, 2004, Tim Russert asked President Bush: "Are you surprised by the level and intensity of resistance?" Bush replied, "No. I'm not."<1> According to Pat Robertson, there is no way that could be true.

Appearing yesterday on CNN, Robertson said that just before the war he "warned him about this war...I was trying to say, 'Mr. President, you had better prepare the American people for casualties.'"<2> Bush then told Robertson, "Oh, no, we're not going to have any casualties."<3> More than 1,100 U.S. troops have died in Iraq and another 8,000 troops have been wounded.<4>

If Bush wins again, there'd be no casualities.
