I also believe it depends on who you talk to about how well things are

getting a description of the whole picture, just the details of a part of it
that they find interesting.

One place I'm getting my information from is Iyad Allawi, our
hand-picked Iraq Interim Prime Minister. The guy we backed in the last
election. (He got 8% of the vote.) The guy who Bush said knew Iraq far
better than he did.

Allawi says Iraq is now in a civil war.

I don't believe a single word I hear about Iraq from the Bush
administration, and I believe very little I hear from them about
anything. Their record of lying is nearly perfect.
