McCain/Muqtada 2008

This man can only even have a chance of winning




With the help of this man:



John Dubya McBush has bound himself to the situation in Iraq. He now takes proud credit for the reduction in violence, what he calls the "surge". Forget, as the media does, the political reconciliations are not happening. Forget, as the media does, that Iraq has had cycles of violence since the US invaded in 2003. Forget, as the media does, that suicide attacks continue. Forget, as the media does, that mortars are even hitting within the Green Zone.

The "surge" is nothing more than a US escalation and increased bombing campaigns. The violence is reduced, not because of McBush and chimpy's escalation, but because Muqtada has implemented and continued a cease-fire. If he calls off the cease-fire or if he can't hold it together, the violence cycle will rise and Iraq will become front page news again. And, we must make sure that no one forgets that this is the "Straight-Talker's War". He wants to own it now, and for the next 100 years. He will own it this Summer, as well.

McBush's ONLY CHANCE of even staying viable is a reduced-violence, forgettable Iraq. From there he still has a helluva hill to climb to appeal to Americans who are falling hard for the Democratic Candidates.

1. McDubya bought chimpy's war and his torture.

And he can't win with that.
