The Potted-Plant-In-Chief's visit to Baghdad airport was very interesting. He couldn't even tell his own parents where he was going (as all good children should) because he was so...afraid.

Apparently, he was touting the fact that, if the media found out where he was headed for, he could turn AF1 around and come home. Now that's courage.

It's nice that the handful of troops who happened to be there could have a morale boost. No question about that. On the other hand, though, it just points out how wrong the Potted-Plant-In-Chief was wrong about the invasion.

Should the PPIC's first visit to Iraq be a skulking, secretive, hasty affair instead of a ticker tape parade in downtown Baghdad? Ooops.
