EmCeeKhan – The Early Morning Saturday Edition

I’m making a post, because I only got three or less hours of sleep today.

Iraq-US Security Agreement

While Bush is meeting with President Talabani from Iraq to discuss ratifying a security agreement between our two countries, there are other people on both sides not wanting it to go through.
