Turning another corner, and light in the tunnel and ... etc etc etc.


Mission, um ... working on it:


Sorry ... what was that again?

Now it's time to rebuild the country, and create a pluralistic, stable and peaceful Iraq.

Quite right. Because after years of war, and thousands of dead American troops, and hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis, and a ruined country, and devastated infrastructure, and millions of displaced refugees, it's finally time to buckle down and get to work. And not a minute too soon, if I do say so myself.

You know that Chimpy McChimperson is now calling for a (time table) time horizon for withdrawal from Iraq because the (American people have turned against the Republicans finally)Iraqis don't want us there anymore.

When George Bush Sr. said he was going to take Kuwait, the ground war took the better part of four days. I don;t know how long the surge has been going on,because I don't have the energy to untangle all the alibi's, but I know it's been more than four days. There's still no end in sight. We're in "it's how you play the game" territory.

The surge worked.

America won!

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki says so.

Also says Barack's timetable is where it's at.
