What a "fantastic job" looks like

Thursday November 2, 2006

I can't reproduce graphics here, so take a look on Belgravia Dispatch at the US Govt PowerPoint showing that the situation in Iraq is redlining on the verge of total anarchy. Greg Djerjian says:

Heckuva job, Rummy! Will he stay on until we're more firmly in the "chaos" zone, or do us all a mega-favor and finally step aside after Nov 7 so as to allow new civilian leadership a shot at remedial strategic oversight of this bungled war? We know what Cheney thinks, of course, which is that things are going "remarkably well" in Iraq. So why shake up a good thing with a new Secretary of Defense not wedded to a failed strategy then? Everything is A-OK. We're moving well beyond fiasco here, but to what, I'm not quite sure yet. Surely this is the most incompetent Administration we've seen since, well, since when?

No-one will "step aside" during the next two years. If Bush didn't have the cojones to try to get a new SecDef through a republican Congress, do you think he will try to get one through a Democratic Congress?>
