The new approach amounts to Iraqification, or the handing over of responsibility for both a deteriorating security situation and a stalled political process to Iraqis. The goal, national security adviser Condoleezza Rice told reporters yesterday, "is that we find ways to accelerate the transfer of authority to the Iraqi people."
Is anyone else visualizing a Huey hovering over a building while they push planes off carriers and babies are thrust into the arms of Embassy Marines?
Those who forget the past...etc...
During the RNC Lovefest next summer, someone should hire the Jumbotron in Times Square and have it list the names of all the soldiers killed and wounded in Iraq while the convention is going on, 24/7 all week. That might put a damper on their sprits a bit.

You should forward that idea to George Soros.

Let us know if this idea goes anywhere, and put me down for a contribution.

All I know is we're gonna be protesting the hell out of that convention. The JumboTron idea sounds great, and somebody should put a billboard near it with a picture of Ground Zero and a sign that says, "It's a national tragedy, not a side trip."
