In the meantime all this talk about armoring and changing tactics on the Iraqi streets is just "trees" talk. The insurgents see the forest; we ought to see it too.

True. I'm not sure that Bush will ever figure it out. Bush Sr. had it right. You set out a mission that you can accomplish in short order and get out.

Saddam even warned Bush ahead of time. He said it would be fought in the streets and alleys. Baghdad is nearly the size of NYC. There are a million places to hide.

LOL...you two remind me of my grandmother and her elderly friends playing cards.

After a glass of wine they sat around convincing each other that they could run the city better than the mayor...and that the new mailman was most interested in their new shade of lipstick.

As far as I know...the mayor kept running the city, and none of them ever married the mailman. ;-)
