Seriously now, are you going to play closet sophist and try to claim a vast leftwing conspiracy trying to discredit the war by starting an astroturf campaign?

Yes, it's a possibility, just like it's a possibility that little grey aliens spewed purple jizz onto dozens of peices of paper and mentally modified the editors of dozens of newspapers to THINK they all read the same thing.

I think I'll opt for occam's perspective on it: some PR flack charged with the task of putting a friendly face on the war got lazy and fucked up a joe job in a really obvious way. They've done it before, and they'll do it again:
