Drudge’s current lead headline is “Bush Candor: Decisions Have Made Iraq More Unstable.” He then links to a CBS News press release on the president’s interview tomorrow with “60 Minutes.” The thing is, CBS’s press release is a remarkable, brain-twisting stretch, in which something that its own Scott Pelley says is metamorphosed into something CBS claims Bush says.

“When pressed by Pelley, Bush concedes that conditions in Iraq are much worse now,” the press release reads, and then quotes the exchange between them.

Pelley: But wasn’t it your administration that created the instability in Iraq?

Bush: Our administration took care of a source of instability in Iraq. Envision a world in which Saddam Hussein was rushing for a nuclear weapon to compete against Iran… He was a significant source of instability.

Pelley: It’s much more unstable now, Mr. President.

Bush: Well, no question, decisions have made things unstable.

“Decisions have made things unstable” is what Bush says. Bush was acknowledging that things are unstable in Iraq due to mistakes made under his stewardship.

It’s Scott Pelley who says “it’s much more unstable now.”

Kind of a big difference, no?
