Dear Mediawatch

I quote:

'President Bush and his aides have spent the last year and a half telling
the American people that the war in Iraq would cost little. A new report by
Defense News, however, says the president will propose another $50 billion,
in addition to the $166 billion already spent. According to the non-partisan
Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, the request "won't come
until after the Nov. 2 presidential election" - effectively concealing the
spending request from public scrutiny.'

The rest of the article is on 'The Daily Misleader - a daily chronicle of
Bush administration distortion', a project from MoveOn, at:
