Truth? Never Touch the Stuff

Are these things intentional?

In today's Valley News we have the following headlines:

White House Slashes Testimony on Climate Change Impacts, and
Troop, Civilian Deaths in Iraq Drop Again.

In the first article we learn that the White House deleted 10 pages of a 14 pages from a report by the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the impact of climate change and global warming on health. All references to health were dropped; only sections on the CDC's efforts at preparedness were left in.

It's 'cause, you know, the president is an Optimist. No need to bum out the American people on things he's not going to do anything about, anyway.

In the second, we are supposed to believe that "October is on course to record the second consecutive decline in U.S. military and Iraqi civilian deaths and American commanders say they know why: the I.S. troop increase and an Iraqi groundswell against al-Qaida and Shiite militia extremists."

Would we be likely to hear anything else?

In yr dreams.

Comments:
So everyone knows that climate change is taking place, and there is a huge debate among scientists regarding how much impact humans have on climate change. So if the argument is that the science does not prove the human impact of climate change, why delete the sections on climate change? Bush seems to shore up the opposition's side by hiding all the evidence in his reports.
 
I left my answer to your question over at confessions of a stunt bride.
 
I love that photo of Bush. I use that expression when I want to make my BFF Anna laugh. I call it the church lady.
Bush got it from his old battleaxe Mama. She'd wear it the morning after Bush 41 would try to mount her.
 
I guess once you twist the truth so much, your lips actually start to contort as well. That explains this pic & that of his toady, Cheney... or is it the other way around?
