Yep! All over. Done. Finished. We're buddies. No harm, no foul. Let's all get along now. I just had a German pancake for breakfast, and some French fries for lunch. How's that for being a unificator, huh?

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

FOR GOD'S SAKE, PLEASE SEND TROOPS!!! WE NEED TROOPS. WE'LL GIVE 'EM GUNS, UNIFORMS, BULLETS, PAY 'EM, ANYTHING, BUT I NEED HELP! THE AMERICAN PUBLIC AIN'T LIKING WHAT'S HAPPENING. SO A FEW OF YOUR SOLDIERS WILL GET KILLED, AND YOUR CONSTITUENCY DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING. BIG DAMNED DEAL - I NEED HELP!!!

NEWMARKET-ON-FERGUS, Ireland (Reuters) - "President Bush declared an end on Saturday to Western rifts over Iraq but won little in his search for European military help and took heat over prisoner abuse.

"The bitter differences of the war are over," Bush told a news conference, which was delayed by anti-American protests staged around the lightning U.S.-EU summit in Ireland.

"Fenced off from his detractors by 2,000 soldiers and 4,000 police -- a third of the Irish security forces -- Bush holed up in a picturesque western Irish castle with European Union leaders before flying to Turkey ahead of a NATO summit."

Arf (and it's the innocent who suffer)
