More Delays in Shift to Iraqi Control

WASHINGTON - In another sign of U.S. struggles in Iraq, the target date for putting Iraqi authorities in charge of security in all 18 provinces has slipped yet again, to at least July.

The delay, noted in a Pentagon report to Congress on progress and problems in Iraq, highlights the difficulties in developing Iraqi police forces and the slow pace of economic and political progress in some areas.

Wait!! How can this be?? Just last week Bush and General Betrayus were telling the world about all the substantial progress being made in Iraqnam. Now this report to the Pentagon comes out and it doesn't spew Bush Administration spin.

How can this be?

It must be the "liberal" media trying to confuse people with facts. Yup. That's it. The damned liberal media. I think I'm going to turn on the Fox Opinion Network so I can get to the bottom of the OJ Simpson arrest issue.
