Government `Wrong’政府`錯誤』

The Bush administration said in court filings that it determined “only recently that the initiation of a process to revise the research plan has become necessary and advisable” and that the government has discretion about how to handle the revised reports, which Armstrong said was “wrong.”布什政府表示，在法庭文件中說，它決心" ，最近才開始的一個過程，修改的研究計劃，已成為必要和明智" ，並認為政府可酌情在如何處理訂正報告，其中阿姆斯特朗說的是"錯誤"
