Stayin' the course
...of our noble cause, you troop-hatin' cuttin' an' runnin' terrist-lovers!
"Brace yourself for a mind-bog of sheer cynicism. The discombobulation begins Wednesday, when President Bush is expected to proclaim, in a major speech at the US Naval Academy, that the Iraqi security forces -- which only a few months ago were said to have just one battalion capable of fighting on its own -- have suddenly made uncanny progress in combat readiness. Expect soon after (if not during the speech itself) the thing that Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney have, just this month, denounced as near-treason -- a timetable for withdrawal of American troops."- Fred Kaplan , in Slate.
"I think you misunderestimate their chances!"
