Look how calm I am with the news that the new current plan has us in Iraq until at least 2009. The surge was going to be evaluated in September. And the current team "in charge" of Iraq refused to answer any questions before that to the Democrats - because it was premature. But they can tell each other that we are there in current form until 2008.
Of course, the Iraquis haven't met the government benchmarks.
Of course, the Iraq armies are going backwards in terms of readiness.
Of course, we have started to arm the sects that have been killing us.
But this will be all better soon. Honest this time.
And I didn't scream.
