The White House has again presented falsified evidence to support its claims about Iraq:
"A key piece of evidence linking Iraq to a nuclear weapons program appears to have been fabricated, the United Nations' chief nuclear inspector said yesterday in a report that called into question U.S. and British claims about Iraq's secret nuclear ambitions.
"Documents that purportedly showed Iraqi officials shopping for uranium in Africa two years ago were deemed 'not authentic' after careful scrutiny by U.N. and independent experts, Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), told the U.N. Security Council."

The White House has also been collecting bids on the costs of rebuilding Iraq:
"NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Bush administration has asked at least five U.S. engineering firms, including a unit of Halliburton Co., to bid for a post-war Iraq rebuilding contract that may be worth as much as $900 million, according to a published report Monday.
"All five companies have submitted their bids or are preparing to do so after the U.S. Agency for International Development 'quietly' sent out a detailed request soliciting proposals from the likely bidders, the Wall Street Journal reported."
