Iraq’s military – one trained and provisioned by the US military – stalled while fighting militia in Basra. So much so that the militia took over parts of Baghdad in retaliation. This all happens only a few hours after the President says, “HAY ALL GOOD IN IRAQ, PPL! GG, GG!” Again, I assert he should not say anything else until his Presidency is over, just to keep the opposite/bad stuff from happening.

Senator Hagel is right – the US’s image overseas sucks horrible ass (watch video). I offer North Korea as an example – the US seems to encourage the worst behavior in our allies and ourselves to the point that any progress made with troublesome countries is erased in mere days.
One attention whore tells the media to back off another attention whore. I had respect for Madonna once – until she became a dried up hippy bitch who acts worse than Tom Cruise sometimes.
