Woohoo! The Iraq Study Group Report is here!

It’s kind of like Christmas, only with foreign policy!

Enjoy!

Got to say, there’s a lot of wishful thinking there.

Externally, the United States should immediately begin to employ all elements of American power to construct a regional mechanism that can support, rather than retard, progress in Iraq.

If wishes were fishes and all that.

I think all the masses of people who greeted us as liberators took the oil.

Those dudes that got greeted with rose petals got the oil, too??

The bastards!

What’s next? Passing government contracts on to their buddies?

Killjoy that I am, I had to post a GD thread about it.

Gee - who saw that coming?

Nope. Who is that?

“The new phone books are here! The new phone books are here!!”
