Bush in Iraq
President Bush is/was in Iraq today.
No "fake turkeys" were served.
I wonder how many rehashes of the fake turkey story will be written by the commentariat in the next few days.
Current Events

The WSJ Ed page says:
"This message reminds American GIs that they're fighting in a noble cause with support on the home front. It tells the terrorists that they aren't close to the political victory they seek of driving the Coalition out of Iraq. It tells the Iraqi people that they can afford to take a risk and join the police or assist the new government with more confidence that the terrorists won't be able to exact revenge. And it gives the Maliki government more political and military options as it considers how to restore order to Baghdad, among other dangerous places."
