No credit for Surge-Stats are fudged!!
Our Military deaths may have slowed, but no account is given on how many of the Blackwater security people are dead. How many workers the contractors had lost. We may not like that the mercenaries do military jobs for 10 times the money, but their deaths and injured should count as well. Not giving an official count of them alters the stats and may make things look like there is less violence. So the Neocons can say, look, the surge is working!!!!!It's all a smoke screen.
