If we had a Representative in Congress (which we don’t) I imagine he/she would be pretty pissed off about this

Remember when Mike Castle switched from having faith inthe ISG to having faith in the super-duper “Petreaus Report” due mid-September?

New Twist In Saga Over ‘Petraeus Report’: There Will Be No Report

petbush.jpgIn the latest twist to the ongoing saga over the Petraeus White House report, a senior military official tells the Washington Times today that there will actually be no report at all:

A senior military officer said there will be no written presentation to the president on security and stability in Iraq. “There is no report. It is an assessment provided by them by testimony,” the officer said.

The only hard copy will be Gen. Petraeus’ opening statement to Congress, scheduled for Monday, along with any charts he will use in explaining the results of the troop surge in Baghdad over the past several months.

To recap, first the public was incorrectly led to believe that Gen. David Petraeus would issue his own report about the situation on the ground in Iraq. Then the Los Angeles Times reported that the so-called “Petraeus report” would “actually be written by the White House.”

Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA) then suggested the White House would probably “tweak” the “Petraeus report.” In an effort to put the controversy to rest, Gen. David Petraeus assured lawmakers that the White House was not going to be involved in the “writing” of the report:

Rep. Kendrick Meek (D-Fla.), told reporters Thursday that Petraeus said he and U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker had briefed the administration on the situation in Iraq, but added that “as far as [Petraeus] is concerned … he is writing his recommendations of that report and testimony.”

Now, apparently there will be no written report from Gen. Petraeus at all.

    This administration is the most lying scumbag administration I’ve seen in my lifetime. Of course they won’t release a written report because all their claims of success will be fraudulent. They won’t want the lies posted on the web for all to see.

  3. Somewhere, Michelle Malkin is cackling…

  4. There will be plenty of transcripts immediately and widely posted for all to see.
