Kevin McCullough MEGA PING!

[Cannoneer No. 4]

Thanks to the enthusiastic cooperation of the American and British MSM, al Qaeda's psychological operation to convince the world that Iraq is an unmitigated disaster has been wildly successful. This has now become the conventional wisdom, and any who dare to deny that America is losing in Iraq is a delusional Bushbot.

I'm in Iraq. We are not losing.

Here's a summary of concrete progress in Iraq that has been going on since last July and before. There's a great list of improvements that mirror the stats in this article.

All the data there has only grown better over the last 6 months.

Thanks for sharing the good news. sSmehow this doesn't make into the nightly snoze or on CNN.

it will only be convincing when the oil production exceeds 3/03 levels.

Great news! Wish we could see more of these articles in the mainstream news.

Fascinating Iraq article

You have a great site, there, Cannoneer.

Well that's a pretty arbitrary standard. So a good economy isn't good unless one of the indicators is at some previous level. Great logic.

Has it occurred to you that one of the reason oil production might be down from 3/03 levels is there's a war going on and a combination of tighter security and attacks on facilities is what's keeping the number lower? If that's the case, it says nothing about the state of the economy, just the logistics of pumping oil in a war zone. Are you implying that the cause of the lower production is an economic slump?

I read that Kurds are dying for Pizza Hut and MacDonald's franchises. Seems like the Commerce secretary should show opportunities to American companies. Throughout the Middle East there is a surplus of money and unemployment. We know how to provide jobs to take their money. :)

Are you implying that the cause of the lower production is an economic slump?

no, I'm implying it does little to convince your critics to talk about how pretty the paint and flower boxes on the south, east and west walls of the house are when the north wall is caved in. The "difficulty pumping oil in a war zone" is a result of the insecurity of the country,as are the U.S. deaths. Until that gets resolved, I don't see much point of celebrating these statistics, and I say that as someone who still sees the effort worth making.

The President needs to put this information in a speech...wishful thinking.

[kitkat]
