Before you go back to the 24/7 coverage of the Jonbenet non-event, please consider the following:
Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised.

In those regions where pockets of dead-enders are trying to reconstitute, General (Tommy) Franks and his team are rooting them out.

And a year from now, I’ll be very surprised if there is not some grand square in Baghdad that is named after President Bush. There is no doubt that, with the exception of a very small number of people close to a vicious regime, the people of Iraq have been liberated and they understand that they’ve been liberated. And it is getting easier every day for Iraqis to express that sense of liberation.
Richard Perle

We are dealing with a country that can really finance its own reconstruction and relatively soon.
Paul Wolfowitz

I think we may well have some kind of presence there over a period of time. But I think the level of activity that we see today, from a military standpoint, I think will clearly decline. I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency.

Just a little reminder from Agitprop.
Mr. blogenfreude, someone should crank up the craft meter and needlepoint up a set of Middle East Misadventure throw pillows and crochet kickass doilies. I'd fall on this grenade but I'm knitting an exit strategy in the DeFarge tradition of domestic regime change.
Oh, my fingers, they do fly!

Yup. Lies and more lies. And never called on any of 'em!

So when they start making up stuff about Iran, the smart money'll be on more lies.

My personal favorite: "And a year from now, I’ll be very surprised if there is not some grand square in Baghdad that is named after President Bush."
What is Richard Perle smoking?
