WASHINGTON, Nov. 26, 2007 President Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki have laid the groundwork for defining what a long-term relationship between the two countries will look like, White House officials announced today.
Both signed the U.S.-Iraq Declaration of Principles for Friendship and Cooperation, the first step toward a normalized, bilateral relationship, said Brett McGurk, director for Iraq in the National Security Council. The document provides a framework for future negotiations between the two countries and loosely defines the issues. |

Are the Democrats on record regarding this?
Historical, I think every Democrat candidate needs to have a response to this i.e., will they recognize it? Will they support it? Sustain it? This is the cornerstone of success in Iraq. This document is the begining of the peace it is the Marshall plan for Iraq...
Its U.S. support for Iraq diplomatically, politically, economically, and giving the security support that Iraq needs,
There damn well better be some large volume of cheap oil
coming our way for the political, economic and security of
the United States! (a small price for Iraq to pay)
Now you done it your gonna get Keith Olbermann all freaked out with his war for oil mantra... The only way we are going to get free oil out of Iraq is if their is a Democrat in the WH here.... any free oil will be labled blood money by the Rats
We are moving at warp speed on this thing. We occupied Japan for 7 years and Germany for 10.
