Transcribing the Whitehouse.

Just quick here. The first quote from the "strategy" in these articles from four different sources is exactly the same. Maybe these guys should actually read this thing instead of just reprinting what was on the White House's talking points sheet.

AP: (2nd para) "No war has ever been won on a timetable," according to a new White House strategy document.

Reuters: (4th para) "No war has ever been won on a timetable -- and neither will this one," the document said.


NYTimes: (4th para) "No war has ever been won on a timetable and neither will this one," the plan says.

Wapo: (5th para) "No war has ever been won on a timetable and neither will this one," said the document. "But lack of a timetable does not mean our posture in Iraq (both military and civilian) will remain static over time."


That disgusts me.

(I gotta run to pick up the dog from her surgery. more later.)

  • How's your dog? Hope all is well. And will we ever really have a thinking, working, acting press?
