Over the last few days, I've been reading news articles and seeing TV reports, quoting Bush administration sources and military officers, that US casualties are down from last year and Iraqi civilian deaths are declining. But I follow these numbers diligently on the internet, here and here (and elsewhere) and that's not what I've been seeing, not at all.
Could the administration be fibbing about these numbers to support a continuation of the surge, I wondered? Surely they wouldn't be so bold as to lie about something so obviously, numerically false, I told myself. And surely the media wouldn't let them get away with it, right?
Wrong.

You could steal the Universe, throw it in the back of a Ford F150, drive it downtown and leave it next to a dumpster behind a Thai restaurant, and the MSM would let you get away with it. Unless Lindsay Lohan was in the truck with you, preferably catatonic.
