What am I missing here?

shrub sez the leaked intel memo regarding the iraq war and the subsequent breeding ground for terrorists was unfairly cherry picked by the media coverage and that it was very misleading. Promises to declassify part of the report that puts it in the proper context and demonstrates how misleading the media reports actually were. The subsequent release really only confirms the previous notion that the Iraq war has made terrorism worse not better.

Why would they do that? Getting bad news out of the way all at once? Is there more to be released? What were they thinking?

I'm at a loss...

1. I think they have painted themselves in a corner...
They want to cherry pick the report....but it's all going to come out and they are fucked.....they are even saying that the NIA report is politically motivated...they are attacking the agencies that developed the report...
