I'll say this much. It is interesting to see the shift by some of the L/MSM key reporters as they now praise the vast improvements they are seeing first hand in Iraq.
ABC News Senior White House Correspondent Martha Raddatz had nothing but praise for our troops, making clear cut statements supporting the whole operation in Iraq, while being interviewed last night during a PBS Washington Week interview.
She was bubbling on and on about how great our troops where and how the security in Baghdad has improved. She in essence poked BHO in the eye in her tone and what she had to say.
Being. There is no way our ground commanders and troops in their own words feel we can vacate per Body Odor's plan. She in clear statements showed just from the logistic end regarding removing our equipment how impossible it would be to even consider Body Odor's 16 month withdraw plan.
I could not help but notice while they video taped her walking about the streets of Baghdad, she wore no protective gear what so ever, and appeared totally relaxed.
And to boot, she kicked most probably un-knowingly Hanoi John in the balls, by making comments as how intelligent and well informed our troops where on all the political issues. One would assume she does not agree with him that they are nothing but knuckle dragger.

Thank you, mi amigo.

It's very peaceful and the Iraqis are smiling.

A wonderful thing to come back to. :-D

Most excellent news. Like every evil ideology throughout history, islamic terrorism is doomed to utter defeat and annihilation.

Al Qaeda will end up as well remembered as the Cathars (Albigensians) or the Thuggees or less so since they're going to be shutdown a lot faster.

I seldom turn the boob tube on but for some reason did. The PBS Washington Review was in progress and I just happened to catch it when Gwyne started to interview her regarding her trip to Iraq. She did not put in even a little bit of spin. It was interesting. I am not used to hearing a reporter at her level talk only positive things regarding Iraq.
It was like a light bulb finally turned on in her skull cap.
