Double Flee A

All the yap these days is about "victory in Iraq".
Howard Dean says it's not possible: WOAI: San Antonio News - Dean: US Won't Win in Iraq

Bush, the other day, had this to say about victory:
"We're pursuing a comprehensive strategy in Iraq. Last week, my administration released a document called the "National Strategy for Victory in Iraq." Our goal is victory -- and victory will be achieved when the terrorists and Saddamists can no longer threaten Iraq's democracy, when the Iraqi security forces can provide for the safety of their own citizens, and when Iraq is not a safe haven for terrorists to plot new attacks against our nation."

How can victory, by these standards, EVER be achieved? We don't even have that level of stability here in the United States!

News flash, our own democracy isn't what it's cracked up to be for the second consecutive election,
and
we aren't safe from terrorists.

For good measure, here's a right wing blogger, to make sense of it all.
