Remember Iraq? "It's not a government - it's a MOB governing only the Green Zone!1"
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 07:50 PM by UTUSN
Since we've been told to forget about the illegal Iraq attack because the surge is working so well, it was startling to hear a reporter on my local ABC affiliate interviewing Iraqis, apparently outside the Green Zone, besides that what they were SAYING was startling.

It was a CNN female reporter. Some of what they told her: 1- "Things were better before. I wish things were back how they used to be. 2- (The statement in the title/Subject (above). 3- "We have water/electricity one hour. We're suffering from the cold."

So. One more thing Shrub is being let off the hook for.

1. It's all relative.
Iraq has turned into a great place for W and his henchmen. Halliburton, Blackwater, Brown & Root, the fuckin' oil companies..."The knife cuts both ways. Is it better if you are butter, or the toast?"
