Dems Release "The Neo Con: The Bush Defense Record by the Numbers." Study Shows Bush Policies Make Us Less Safe

http://www.buzzflash.com/articles/alerts/104


A BUZZFLASH NEWS ALERT

Democratic leaders announced the release of a new report today, "The Neo Con: The Bush Defense Record by the Numbers." The study is touted as "an analysis of the data behind the Bush approach to national security" and demonstrates statistically how the Administration has bungled foreign policy, ultimately making the nation and the world less safe. (click here to read the report - pdf)

The 29-page report contrasts encouraging quotes from Administration officials on Iraq, terrorism, Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea, China, and the U.S. military's status with graphs, tables, and "then and now" comparisons showing that reality has not lived up to the promises. Clear declines are evident in each category.

Sen. Tom Carper (D-DE), who helped found the policy group that produced the report, said "he world changed on September 11th, 2001. But the world has changed since then, too, and it's not necessarily been for the better."

The following are some highlights, but you owe it to yourself to take at least a quick skim through the full report. It's quick and easy to read (we promise!).

1. I found it to be a useful report.....

even if others are poopooing it because the research was done by a group connected to Al From, who ran Kerry's campaign in 2004....and who because of his association with the DLC is now hated as much as Bush.

But when you actually READ this doc, it is a great research paper chock full of important information which makes a great case against Bush in Iraq....number crunching wise....
