My Head Hurts

George Bush, May 28, 2004:
I told the Prime Minister that our government and our coalition will transfer full sovereignty, complete and full sovereignty to an Iraqi government that will be picked by Mr. Brahimi of the United Nations.

The Real World, May 28, 2004:
U.N. spokesman Fred Eckhard said the United Nations had not expected the Governing Council to make the announcement, "but the Iraqis seem to agree on this candidate," he said. "And if they do, Mr. Brahimi is ready to work with this candidate. If this is the Iraqi way, he's ready to go with it and work with it and try to complete the process by the end of the month."

What kind of odds do you want to give me that I'll see a quote from George W. Bush before June 1 referring to Allawi as "the U.N.'s choice."
