Company Advising Bush Says He Is Lying To Win The Election

We already knew that the Administration was getting daily reports on the situation in Iraq from Kroll, Inc., and, thanks to the Washington Post, we knew that the President had shot that particular messenger when the reports continued to belie his ridiculous happy-talk.
But now, thanks to the News Tracker over at the Senate Democratic Leadership homepage, I find out that Kroll has been issuing independent weekly reports that are still available on its website.
Their latest report, dated yesterday, September 30, says what we all know, that the emperor has no clothes:
Doubts continued to grow this week over whether elections can take place in January as planned against the current backdrop of relentless violence...It is likely that the current U.S. firmness is tied to the November presidential elections, and that its stance could change after the U.S. vote, if George Bush is re-elected. A revised and perhaps more realistic timetable could then be adopted...
You read that last part right. Kroll is telling its clients worldwide that one of its clients, Bush, is misleading the world about the prospects for holding an Iraqi election in January, and is doing it to win the U.S. election in November. Kroll won't keep its business around the world if it doesn't call these shots straight. So while they didn't out and out call their client, the President of the U.S., an out-of-touch liar willing to do anything to be re-elected, they came damn close.
As far as I can see, the media know nothing of these reports. They don't know (or aren't reporting) that the President's own advisers think he's going to postpone the Iraq election as soon as he secures a second term. I'll do what I can to get the word out. Can you Kos'ers help?
BTW, this is no new development - Kroll's been warning that the election timetable is unrealistic for weeks:

Furthermore, even if they hold elections, what is that going to prove? There will still be continued fighting, killing maming. The radical Muslems will not relent,untill you kill all of them, they are like carpenter ants, as long as you have the queen and the workers, they will continue to "breed" more followers. We only have Saddam,(Queen) or king as far as him, but there are many more who they will follow. Do you honestly think we will ever be rid of the radicals? Kerry was right in saying it was the Wrong war,Wrong place Wrong time! We shoud have finished off Osama Bin Laden, first, maybe that would have sent a message. But NO, Bush decided to go after Saddam, redirecting all the energies in getting him. Then we did, fine, then the prison abuses came out, you don't think Rumsfeld has something to do with that?? Who ordered that? I knew as soon as that came out, I KNEW some horrible retaliations would occur. And they did! Many have lost loved ones because Bush acted before it became the last resort.
Plus, the economy sux. People are paying more for things than their paychecks are going up. Sure, some people are doing well, of course they want Bush to stay in, the hell with all the rest. The middle class suffer, pay the tab for all the wealthy. Jobs are lost to overseas. Bush has mad a complete mess of things.
