Rummy and Myers on Pentagon Ch lying about iraq right now
Discussing all the "positive" parts of the war. 190k iraqi troops trained (really?)

No major incidents over the weekend, but one french troop was killed.

Talking about successful election in afganistan(?) and about people THROWING FLOWERS at the troops. hahaha.

Iraqis have 126 battalions. Claims iraqis are in charge of security in Najaf and "most" of bagdad.

What a PR trip. Are any of the normal news channels covering the press conference? It says Live on PC.

Myers didnt deny there was a draft memo discussing it, but said "there is no doctrine" that relies on it. haha.

8. Does Rummy ever wear the US flag pin?
I noticed he didnt have one on. I thought it was mandatory, if you're in the Bush cabal, to have a flag pin on your suit.
