Defeatocrats Already Spinning Petraeus Report as "Bush Report"

I believe the talking points are in and the Democrats are going to try to spin General Petraeus' report on Iraq as "The Bush Report". Washington Times:

"The Bush report?" Senate Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin said when asked about the upcoming report from Gen. Petraeus, U.S. commander in Iraq.

"We know what is going to be in it. It's clear. I think the president's trip over to Iraq makes it very obvious," the Illinois Democrat said. "I expect the Bush report to say, 'The surge is working. Let's have more of the same.' " ....

"We will see what the Bush report will be at the end of next week," Mrs. Pelosi said. "The facts are self-evident that the progress is not being made. They might want to find one or two places where there has been progress ... but the plural of anecdote is not data."

She said Democrats were determined to uncover "the ground truth in Iraq."

Discredit the report by linking it to the Bush administration, very clever.

I think Bill Ardalino might have something to say about "the ground truth", Mrs. Pelosi.

...the positive change in Fallujah since my January visit is astounding.
