All Cynicism Aside…

June 28th, 2004

..it’s nice to see the early han­dover of power to the new interim Iraqi gov’t. good for them, and good for us on keep­ing our promise. let’s hope all par­ties involved can get the secu­rity prob­lems under con­trol, and maybe … just maybe… this will stem some attacks in the future (doubt it though).

  2. i was read­ing Boortz’s site tonite and he made an inter­est­ing point….we went into iraq, won major fight­ing in 2 months, cap­tured saddam, killed his mur­der­ous sons, and restored power to the people in a year and a half. all this was done with losing fewer than 1,000 casu­al­ties. thats a hell of an accom­plish­ment. we’re at the point now where iraq has power on its own and we’re doing noth­ing more than aiding a suc­cess­ful setup. whether you like bush or not, he has so far done just about every­thing he said he was going to do.

  3. This is all very good. I have high hopes that things will keep pro­gress­ing in the direc­tion of Iraq gov­ern­ing itself. I know it won’t be some­thing imme­di­ate. But if Bush can pull that off before the elec­tion, at least the gen­eral sense that Iraq is becom­ing self-​governed, then I think Kerry will have a tough time beat­ing him.
