Green Zone Handed Over to Iraqi Government

Harry Reid announced some time ago that "this war is lost." Will he now admit, on the record, that he was foolish, ignorant, and wrong?  No,I don't think so either.

Thank goodness the cut-and-runners were not able to get their way.

Will you admit on the record this war was foolish, ignorant and wrong? No, I didn't think so.

I'm pretty sure it was management guru Peter Drucker who said all the efficiences in the world at doing something can't make up for it being the wrong thing.

It was the "right thing" to do and no amount of Hollywood propaganda or leftist spinning will ever change that. Darfur should be next, then kick the Iranians butts on the way home and then circle back around and take care of Russia once and for all. Then ask the Chinese if they want a piece of us before we put our planes and missiles away. In the meantime the Arabs will be scurrying back into their little mountain holes aftraid to show their little terrorist faces at least for a while. But no problem when they do stick their heads back out, we can take care of them in short order.

It is always the kinder, gentler and more considerate way; to kick ass and take names than to keep people waiting.

Oh, I forgot all about the N. Koreans. But then, that is a given.

Peace comes from defeating evil, not ignoring it. Or negotiating with it. Or supporting it.

North Korea is still around?

I put them as #1 in my "10 Countries Most Likely to Blow Themselves Up" list

Who takes over when Kim Jong Mentally-Il dies from a Viagra overdose?

Tijuana has an awfully long "to do" list for a seriously overstretched military. Maybe in retrospect it might've been smart not to piss off so many allies.

Naw. Let's go kick some ass! Ya-hoo!!
