I hope and pray that we can bring hope and a future to the Iraqi people. Something Al Quada can not.

This is a HUGH story...an historical day, in OUR attempt to help the Iraqi people set up a democratic form of government..

However, I have heard only small mentions now and then on Fox News....

Our poor troops, for DAYS the story has been about Murtha's exploitation of the Marine story, trying to paint them as berserk killers..all over the news.

This is not....

This is great news and it will give the MSM front page material for all their Sunday editons to run instead of the concocted civil war stories. However, I'm not going to hold my breath.

All ready heard it this morning on the local car radio (a CBS News Station) and the but that quickly came was all about how ineffectual the new government was because of 23 dead in bombings in Iraq as they met to be sworn in.

Thank you Mike.

I normally don't use Breaking News as I have so much to get out that the MSM is Hiding that if I did use it I'd Control the Breaking News Column

This should bring an end to talk of an "Iraq War." The war is over (has been for quite a while, but this makes it official). The Sunni insurgency is reduced to leftover criminals, as the Sunnis have now taken their respective place in the Iraqi government. The Sunni insurgency has no rival government in place, controls no territory, and has no regular forces.

The remaining job of Iraqi and Coalition forces is to destroy the terror cells manned by foreign jihadis. The Iraqis will take care of the shrinking number of Sunni criminals.

Reframe the debate. Tell your loser liberal acquaintances they are defeated, the Iraqis have won, and the Coalition will help Iraq until things are secure enough to leave, except for our imperialist forward bases, which are required for our future plans for world domination, heh. (I tell them that last part just to watch their ears smoke.)

Murtha, too late, you have lost. Howard ("unfortunately, we can't win") Dean, you lose too. Kerry, you lose, yet again.

As for the civil war, the MSM gave it, but nobody came. Head for "Palestine" you pinhead prevaricators, that's where the civil war is taking place.

I agree with you...this IS major news! This is a monumental geopolitical shift toward freedom --- in the heart of the Middle East.

Well done and thank you to our President and all the men and women serving so honorably in the US Military.

I think that the fact that this was going to happen today, is one reason the Murtha made that speech saying those Marines are guilty...even before the report is finished.

And, it worked....there have been all kinds of press about his speech...but nothing about this.

Also, Duncan Hunter gave a press conference late yesterday afternoon, in opposition to Murtha's characterization..and had I not actually turned on C-span, I wouldn't know about it...because I have seen NO sound bites or reporting about HIS side at all.

LOL

yeah....

Although I'd love to see the nay-sayers on FR talk about this one too.


Unfortunately there are a few of them.
