Iraq Policy Report

The Iraq Study Group's report landed with a big, wet, thud today. The report makes a number of recommendations to change US policy in the Iraq war.

Among its 79 recommendations, the group said the United States should reduce political, military or economic support for Iraq if the government in Baghdad cannot make substantial progress.

I guess what they say about opinions is right... They're like assholes: everyone's got one and they all stink. Do they think threatening the new Iraqi government is going to make them hurry up and take charge? Cutting support is supposed to stabilize the country?

The media is spinning this report as the proof that George Bush sucks and Iraq is Vietnam with sand and furry people. I may have some comments on that later, if I get insomnia and decide to actually read the report.
