Default 20,000 brain injuries not counted in Iraq wounded list

http://www.usatoday.com/news/militar...injuries_N.htm

Why is George Bush's administration undercounting the Iraq injuries??

To claim that George Bush is winning the phony war in Iraq??

If true that is a lot of brain injuries, which translate into a lot of impaired folks who will need medical care for a long time..
