The truth is being put out there for us- but because the gov is short on translators and would face nothing but delay in getting these out, it was decided to speed up the job by bypassing government translators and just let Arabic-speaking Americans take a shot at it. Even so it still takes time, and the administration will have to wait for the translations and take a look at people's work before they can comment on it. The best thing about this is the gov will be able to compare translations from various people to those they are getting from their own hirees and that way check for accuracy.
Well, I'm all for accuracy and vetting info before releasing it. But the timing on this info. seems pretty crucial here. We really can't afford to lose even one seat to the Dems next month, considering what's going on with N. Korea and Iran (and Iraq). And the American public needs to know this info bad, and HAS needed to know it for too long now.
It just always seems like the Reps sit on crucial information like this and wait and wait, instead of fighting back. I'm just a little frustrated with this same ole, same ole 'Mr. Nice Guy Republican' routine, I guess. The Dems have been anything 'but' nice, and I'm sick of their lies....especially about the WMDs that were there before they were transported out 3 mos. before we went into Iraq. The Reps have virtually let the Dems get away with that campaign of lies for three years now, without significant rebuttle or without slapping them down. I think the Reps have played things way too passively for too long. It's time to take the gloves off. It's now or never. (just my 2 cents)
