their guy mr. allawi

as the bush crime family tried to put a sunny face on their crimes in Iraq they featured their guy (appointed) to lie to the American people....The New York Times says it all very succinctly.

.........Since he was appointed interim prime minister in June, Mr. Allawi has not tried very hard to remake himself as a democrat. He has armed himself with the power to declare martial law and reinstated the death penalty, and he closed the Baghdad offices of Al Jazeera when it refused to adjust its editorial policies to his liking. His main appeal to Iraqis rests on the notion that he may be the only politician ruthless enough to hold the fragmenting country together.
