Bi Partisan Iraki Report

OK, so here we go political again.
this is a lnk of the many discussing this new stage on the Iraki scenario concerning the US involvement.

Bush and his administration is now hopefully going to have to change course.

More bombs today, more deaths, more of our tax money down the drain . . . And I think that this is a very positive step to start with the process of change.

Let's just see what The Bush Administration is actually going to do now.

They said the situation in Iraq is "grave". More like "mass grave" IMO.

Why must there always be "certain conditions"? I think there should never be any conditions for simply talking:

It was a sad scene watching both Bush and Blair on the podium answering questions today.
They seem to be grasping tightly to straws as quick sand engulfs them and they stubbornly refuse the "Crap, we screwed up." acknowledgment.

they look old and tired those two . . . .

The local paper here has a running count down to Jan 20, 2008.

Forecast doesn't look good, I don't see any real talent from either side of the aisle making a real run.

What, exactly, are they supposed to do? Whether you think going into Iraq was a mistake or not, the fact is that the Coalition is there and can't simply pack up and leave.

Can you imagine what would happen without Coalition troops there to keep some semblance of peace? Iraq would collapse into a civil war the moment the troops pulled out. The US and Britain would be vilified for leaving the country in an unstable state. Bush and Blair are damned if they do and damned if they don't. They have to stay in Iraq until the Iraqi's can look after there own affairs.

What the Iraqi's need is to fight a common enemy to unite them, someone universally hated.
Where's France when we really it. :D

Blair will be gone by this time next year.
