BAGHDAD (AP) -- Vice President Joe Biden landed Saturday on what appeared to be a dual mission in Baghdad: to visit U.S. troops during the July Fourth weekend and coax Iraqi leaders into ending their government impasse.

Top Obama administration officials have been reluctant to visit Iraq since its deadlocked March election failed to produce a clear winner. Biden's trip may signal the U.S. is stepping up its efforts to hammer out an agreement among Iraqi political rivals and get a new government in place as soon as possible.

I feel so sorry for our soldiers who have to be polite and respectful to these vermin.

That's hysterical. They must have no hope at all if they're sending Dopey Joe. It's just so they can say they tried.

Bite-me is the village idiot who wanted to split Iraq into three autonomous regions. What's Plugs the Plagiarist going to solve?

“.....hammer out an agreement.....”

Will it be like the agreement Nixon and Kissinger hammered out with South Vietnam?
