Bruce McQuain points out [1] that while some are trying to define Iraq as a failure, the fact show a different story. Does a pretty fair job of it, too. As usual.
What Bruce is pointing up, however is but a bit of the total effort;
I’d point out that this article he lists is much the same as the move we saw in Congress the other day, trying to ‘ban’ the phrase “Global war on terror’ when talking about Iraq.
Iraq is on track toward becoming a huge victory in the war on terror for the Bush administration. What we see from the press and the left (A redundancy) is the attempt to redefine it as neither.
The left needs the United States to be defeated in Iraq. Needs it badly.
Isn’t it time we asked them ‘why?”
