Those Rascally Iraq Reports

If it doesn’t look good for you, change it. That seems to be the theme these days. Just glad that nobody believes the Pentagon’s crappy excuses. A failing grade is still a failing grade, even if you do boost it up to like a D.
The UN praised Iran today for being very compliant to the [...]

Remember When the Boy Scouts …

Was about boys doing scouting … things? Now, the BSA is apparently the outlet for pedophiles and idiots.
While the insurgent Shiite army may be calling off the fighting for awhile to re-organize in Iraq (which would be awesome if the entire army obeys the ceasefire), now disease is threatening to kill a ton of people. [...]

It’s the old “The Enemy of my [...]

Iraqi Heat

Merely a week or two before General Petraeus goes up to give a report on Iraq’s progress, the shit is already hitting the fan.
First, Bush criticizes the Iraqi government while standing in support of the Iraqi government in the greatest bullshit maneuver of his time.
