Iraq the Model is in with a report. It must be hell living there right now. Bush had better come away with something solid from his meeting with Maliki. I imagine the majority of decent people of Iraq are finding it nearly impossible to hang on. And if we can't get the fighting lessened, or if we simply pull out, my sense is that the people of Iraq don't have a great deal more time.


Do you honestly think that there is anything that Bush & Maliki can say or do to fix this problem?
Maliki is either going to pull a no-show or a coup will take place in his absence.
I am mystified by conservative trust in Bush to manage this crisis as Bush is apparently unable to acknowledge that a problem of the current scale exists. Expect to hear about "victory," "freedom pangs," "hard work" and "turning corners."
When will you conservatives grow the balls to hold Bush responsible for this disaster?

"When will you conservatives grow the balls to hold Bush responsible for this disaster?"
Because Bush has been sending suicide bombers into Iraq, right? Or is this yet another case of the left not wanting to blame the people actually committing the crimes?

Why do we have to "fix the problem" . Our problem was already solved removing Saddam and the chances of WMD coming from Iraq. Let them fight it out. We now move onto Iran and South Korea.

Iraq the Model? He's either some guy from Flint whose dad was an ex-pat and he's getting a paycheck from the DOD to blog or it's Lt.Smith from the Military Intelligence Brigade. Either way, this garbage is coming straight from The Bubble (aka, The Green Zone).
On a positive note, I notice he finally took down the bogus Iraqi flag that Proconsul Bremer designed using the Israeli flag as a jumping off point.
