Lefties harping on Downing Street Memo

Much like Al Jazeera, Lefties have been harping about the so-called "Downing Street Memo", a memo that allegedly "proves" that Bush "fixed" the war in Iraq.

They are ranting about this passage:

C reported on his recent talks in Washington. There was a perceptible shift in attitude. Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The NSC had no patience with the UN route, and no enthusiasm for publishing material on the Iraqi regime's record. There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action.

But why is slang being used in a formal document of UK minutes?

According to the North American Edition of the Encarta Dictionary, the word "fixed" is slang.

7. dishonestly arranged: unfairly or illegally arranged ( slang )

Most likely, there is another meaning. Of course, to tell that to a Leftie, you will probably be labelled a "conspirator".
