		<description>"And just what have you seen in the last 4.5 years that has convinced you that there is any 'success' whatsoever to be had in this festering disaster?"

I bet he couldn't even give a concrete definition for success.

		<description>'It'll be a bit of egg on the face if the so-called 'failure' in Iraq ends up being a success.

Perhaps that's why much of the left is so committed to making sure they get us out before that happens.'

		<description>The reason the left knows that Iraq will be a failure is because it is already a failure on its own terms.  We expected to spend about $50 billion total and are now looking at $1 trillion.  How could that be looked at any other way?

The reason that the left wants us out ASAP is because we don't want to spend another trillion seeing if we can justify the expense of the first.

My first mentor described it this way: When you fuck up, own your fuck-up and don't create new fuck-ups.

		<description>"William please don't tell me you're one of those 'The good news just isn't getting out of iraq' drones. Because those people are idiots."

I'm sure he knows more about the situation in Iraq than the soldiers who wrote that Op-Ed piece. The one the MSM ignored because they were too busy calling Iraqi war cheerleaders critics.

		<description>Bush will get the $50 billion as the first installment of Operation Irani Liberation.

Poor Congress just can't say no to serial warmongers.  It just isn't patriotic, you know.

Where as William, living stateside in someone's basement, knows all that is going on in Iraq and says "Go forth and die (but not me)."

		<description>"In theory I could have a three way with Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel and Jessica Simpson but it's similarly unlikely to happen."

No you couldn't, cause that would be four people, which is enough to be called an orgy.

		<description>Oooh, Bartle Bill "suggested" something.

Well, let's see, as an American citizen who has been living in America, I'd like to "suggest" that the reason we haven't defeated either the Taliban or al-Qaida or the Iraqi insurgency is not so much because of poor strategy and mismanagement of resources as it is a strange obsession with perpetual war.

		<description>Nothing has changed regarding the reporting out of Iraq since those comments were made in 2004. If anything, it's gotten worse.

Bartle Bull, who has written about Iraq for the New York Times and lived with a family in Sadr City, went so far as to suggest that the errors of hotel journalism were not those of laziness as much as a “weirdly personal” obsession with the notion that Iraq must fail.

		<description>"Maybe you should be asking yourself why the right is so desperate to deny what is actually happening in Iraq right now, as we speak"

Maybe you should explain where you get your all-knowing-god-like-super powers that give you perfect clarity and knowledge of what's going on in Iraq "right now as we speak"?

“We live in a bubble,” grumbles one AP reporter. “If we know one percent of what’s going on in Iraq, we’re lucky.”
