CNN, the mouthpiece of AOL/Time/Warner, puts out the word, including the news that the New York Times is about to say something as well.

The VA has scandalously been hiding their own estimates of the number of wounded from the twin wars, now bringing on a financial emergency due to the upcoming fiscal years starting October 1. As recently as April the VA leaders lied and told their supervisory House committee that they had plenty of money. Why did they hide these costs? Because they were caused by a quadrupling of the estimate of wounded soldiers that will need care. The estimate has gone from 23,500 to 103,000.

Now the tune changes:

6/25/05: “It doesn’t make any sense to have a timetable. You know, if you give a timetable, you’re — you’re conceding too much to the enemy.”

People like this guy are considered the key to getting support of the Iraqi people. How has the U.S. effort been doing with so far?

One of Fahd’s six daughters, Jinan, was killed in November by U.S. Marines under circumstances that have never been clear. Two other relatives lost their lives in violence, and at least 15 clansmen and relatives are in U.S. or Iraqi custody, some for more than a year, he said.

Speaking by video, Rory Mayberry, a former food production manager at Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown & Root Inc., told Democratic lawmakers how Halliburton charged the government for as many as 10,000 meals a day it never served. He also said the company paid unusually high prices for its food, fed food as much as a year beyond its expiration date to the troops and ordered employees not to talk to U.S. government auditors.

“For trucks that were hit by convoy fire and bombings, we were told to go into the trucks and remove the food items and use them after removing the bullets and any shrapnel,” he said.
