Absolute Astonishment
OK, as much as I read, as much as I poke around finding stuff to blog about, as closely as I follow things going on in Iraq and the Middle East in general, this came as a complete, utter surprise.
My Election Analysis has some astonishing numbers up. They are not from some right-wing war supporter, they are from the Brookings Institution, a very liberal group indeed. They show, rather dramatically, steadily, consistently declining casualty figures, not just our armed forces, but in every other classification as well. Military, police, civilian, you name it.
As he puts it:
My only point is that if the data you’ve received left you completely surprised by these numbers, what does that really say about the completeness of the data you’ve received?
It proves just how bad the lies the media are telling are. Worse than even I thought.

The Iraq Index from Brookings is the best way to dispel the willful ignorance from those on the left that want to convince Americans with even less of a clue that we are losing.
It’s clear from this information that WE ARE WINNING!

Well, it certainly proves that the media is lying.
