One thing after another

America has nearly forgotten Jessica Lynch, the Army soldier from West Virginia who was turned into a one-week hero by the Army and White House. Trouble is, she told a Congressional committee today, it was all a pack of lies. She was wounded in the invasion of Iraq and captured by Iraqi soldiers, but just about everything else was made up by the Bush Administration. She's embarassed and disturbed, and rightfully so.

Just another day in the rapidly unraveling world of George W. Bush. Keep in mind that we've only seen a tiny bit of what during the last days of the Nixon Administration were called the "White House horrors." I doubt if any of us can imagine what waits to be revealed.
