Press Release of Senator Reid

Reid: Administración de Bush le debe al Congreso y al pueblo estadounidense un informe honesto sobre Irak en septiembre

Thursday, August 16, 2007

Washington, DC—El Líder de la Mayoría del Senado Harry Reid hizo las siguientes declaraciones hoy en respuesta a informes que señalan que la Casa Blanca desea limitar la información que pueda obtener el pueblo estadounidense sobre los informes de progreso sobre Irak:
 
“El esfuerzo de la Casa Blanca para prevenir que el General Petraeus y el Embajador Crocker testifiquen abierta y francamente ante el Congreso sobre la situación en Irak es inaceptable.  No sólo contradice la ley que el mismo Presidente Bush firmó en mayo, sino que parece ser otro intento con motivaciones políticas de evitar darle al Congreso y al pueblo estadounidense una evaluación abierta de una guerra que, como todos podemos ver, va en la dirección equivocada. 
 
“Desde el principio de esta guerra, la Administración de Bush se ha negado a rendirle cuentas al pueblo estadounidense sobre su estrategia fracasada.  En vez, ha hecho todo lo posible por librarse de responsabilidad y engañarnos sobre la realidad en el campo de batalla.  El resultado: una guerra civil sin fin que ha cobrado la vida de casi 4,000 soldados estadounidenses y un gobierno iraquí que se niega a tomar responsabilidad de su propio país.
 
“Si el Presidente va a seguir pidiendo que los soldados estadounidenses luchen en esta guerra civil, que los contribuyentes gasten $10 mil millones cada mes para financiar esta guerra y que el pueblo estadounidense tenga paciencia mientras él dirige esta guerra, entonces los más cercanos a la situación en el campo de batalla tienen que darle al Congreso y al pueblo estadounidense un informe de esta guerra independiente de influencias políticas de la Casa Blanca.”

Drudge headline Average Incomes Fell for Most in 2000-5

Published: August 21, 2007 by the NY Times: The average income in 2005 was $55,238, nearly 1 percent less than the $55,714 in 2000, after adjusting for inflation.

Could the NY Times have it right?... after 6 years of MASSIVE illegal immigration that they FAILED to report but WE KNEW?

Babel Fish Translation Help

In English:
Washington, DC-El Leader of most of the Senate Harry Reid today made the following declarations in answer to information that indicate that the White House wishes to limit the information that can obtain the American town on the progress information on Iraq: “the effort of the White House to come up frankly that General Petraeus and Crocker Ambassador testify open and before the Congress on the situation in Iraq is unacceptable. It not only contradicts the law that same President Bush signed in May, but that seems to be another attempt with political motivations to avoid to give the Congress and to the American town an opened evaluation of a war that, as all we can see, goes in the mistaken direction. “From the beginning of this war, the Administration of Bush has refused to render accounts to him to the American town on its failed strategy. In time, it has done all the possible one to get rid of responsibility and to deceive to us on the reality in the battlefield. The result: an endless civil war that the life of almost 4.000 American soldiers has received and an Iraqian government who refuses to take responsibility from his own country. “If the President is going to continue requesting who the American soldiers fight in this civil war, that the contributors spend $10 billion every month to finance this war and that the American town has patience while he directs this war, then nearest the situation in the battlefield they must give to the Congress and to the American town a report of this independent war of political influences of the White House.”
