Reality of what is happening in Iraq


Pennsylvania's Congressman John Murtha has been saying this for months... despite the rosy picture painted by our president about how Iraq is making real progress towards democracy, the truth is that the country is embroled in an all-out civil war with the situation only getting worse. And from this chart courtesy of the New York Times, you'll see that Iraq's infrastructure is still in a state of chaos, with Baghdad only getting an average of 4 hours of power compared to 16-24 before the U.S. invaded.
