Re: Couldn't pass this up.
Read the link, Bowser.
By almost all the standards you used to bring up in these discussions, Iraq is better off than they were under Saddam.
Aside from that your "facts" and number are wrong (when not completely invented), your premises inane, and your statements on conditions there no different than they were three years ago.
I predicted a long time ago that there could be no conceivable outcome in Iraq that would result in the Left conceding a victory. I've been right so far, although most of the Left seems to be dealing with it today by pretending there is no such country as Iraq.
