Who said anything about benchmarks?Crooks and LiarsBy: Steve Benen September 13, 2007 Sometimes, these guys make it too easy. White House Press Secretary Tony Snow, yesterday, in his final appearance:
Reality, as reported last week: It was the White House and the Iraqi government, not Congress, that first proposed the benchmarks for Iraq that are now producing failing grades, a provenance that raises questions about why the administration is declaring now that the government's performance is not the best measure of change. The administration presented a to-do list and said, "Judge us in September on these points." They've successfully completed three of the 18 tasks. In response, the new line is, "To-do lists are stupid." |
