In order:

1. Handing control over to the Iraqis on June 30th and going home.

2. Making sure all of the pencils belonging to the commander of US forces in Iraq were properly sharpened.

3. Regularly washing out the coffee pot.

...and so on...

From Amb. Bremer's bio:
Prior to being in Iraq, Ambassador Bremer was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Marsh Crisis Consulting Company, a crisis management firm owned by the financial services firm Marsh & McLennan.

Here's a little known fact. The first plane into the north tower of the WTC went not into Cantor, Fitzgerald, as most people seem to think, but directly into the offices of Marsh & McLennan, which occupied the floors just below Cantor, Fitzgerald.

Bremer worked at Marsh & McLennan at the time, but I have no idea if his office was located in the WTC.

"Acceptance of the idea that the rule of law is what governs the country"

Would that be sharia law?

Fiscal responsibility. "We have begun to get them into the mindset … that you just don't print dinars to cover deficits, which is what Saddam did," Bremer said.

Now if we could only get them to sign onto that over here.
