I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Sen. Obama already has, several times over the past 6 months, claimed credit for scaring the Iraqi government into taking some positive action. His is sort of a “scared straight” formulation of claiming credit.

Yes, I agree, thank God that we have W in the White House and not the Goracle. We would be sending inspector Cluseau over there to find bin Laden and we would be in economic shambles with Eco taxes.

Mookie is nothing more than a puppet for the Mullahs in Iran, always was and always will be.

Love your blog AJ, I mostly lurk though.

As Michael Yon has always said the victory in Iraq will come and we will be hard pressed to look back to point to a specific day or incident that marked the occasion.

I will simply be that it is finally recognized for what it is.

And to think that the election was that close to having Al Gore as President. I can’t imagine what would have (Or not) happened.

My wife feels that he would still have been negotiating with the Tailban. Pakistan is doing this now and we are beginning to see the results already.

Striking are the similarities between Sadr and Gore: both inherited their positions from their more capable fathers, both run around fomenting religious troubles and both are getting fatter by the minute.

Once again I wake up and thank God that Bush has been there and not Gore. And especially glad that he has forced maturity and responsibility on the miscreants in Congress.

Gwood,

I had the same thought!

While I am pleased with the progress in Iraq, I am not so certain that victory is at hand, even in Iraq. I sure as hell hope so, but I believe that the ideology of the enemy is much to widespread to think this way. On the other hand, it is very important to have measurable progress and this would be a milestone.

To me the last steps needed is the handover of the last provinces to Iraq control and we can move into the next phase with our new ally in the war on terror.

“Yes we can”.

Thanks for keeping our pending victory in Iraq front and center, AJ. The Democratic Party’s attempt to preempt this victory should be the pivotal issue in the coming election, but the media is doing a pretty good job of sweeping it under the rug. I’m ready to roll out the “Mission Accomplished” banner pretty soon.
