There goes Al-Qaidas plans to disrupt it and the dimrats plans to say "It failed".
Thanks.
How many talk shows is this guy going to be on between now and the election ?
Woohoo !
Are you kidding? Where did you hear this? Oh God, if that`s true the dimrats would be having seizures. This early handover not only upsets Al Qaidas plans but the dimrats plans to stage a huge "It failed" rally.
YESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
US administrator Paul Bremer signs the official document that hands over power to an Iraqi interim government. Iraq will need to overcome numerous obstacles, including two nationwide elections and a constitutional referendum, before regaining full sovereignty and a democratic government at the end of next year or in 2006.(AFP/US Military/HO)
Unfortunately, the report has been denied.
The timing of this vis a vis the fat slob's propoganda film is pretty sweet.

Does America get a bonus for finishing the job early?
Excellent. Now the terrorists in Iraq are not attacking the US andcoalition, but Iraq as a nation. Great move.
Exactly. They'll be confronting Iraqis, not Americans as we cede more and more responsibility to Iraq's growing security forces.
Yes, and the new Iraqi gov't is calling the terrorists "infidels". Now we're talking.
Yep... it's called "four more years."
What happened to the new Iraqi flag?
That looks like the old flag, although the arabic in the middle between the stars may be different?
Paul Bremer deserves the Medal of Freedom! Talk about a tough, thankless job. Thank you Mr. Bremer.
