Bush Makes Surprise Visit to Iraq BAGHDAD, Iraq President Bush was meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki face to face on Tuesday after making a surprise visit to Iraq to bolster the newly-formed government and discuss the next steps in trying to shore up Iraqi security after three years of war. "I appreciate you recognize the fact that the future of your country is in your hands," Bush told al-Maliki. "I appreciate your committment to representing the people of Iraq."
The president arrived in Baghdad at 8:08 a.m. EDT, or 4:08 p.m. local time. It was the second surprise visit he's made to the country in the past three years. Last time, Bush went to visit U.S. troops on Thanksgiving in 2003. At that time, his visit wasn't announced until after he left. This time, his arrival was reported after he touched down in Baghdad's Green Zone.
Only a handful of aides knew of the trip as the president had been speaking since last week about hosting a Camp David retreat where the president, his Cabinet and his national security and military team were supposed to hold a teleconference Tuesday with al-Maliki and his Cabinet. The two-day retreat provided cover for Bush to travel secretly and for al-Maliki and his Cabinet to arrive in the Green Zone for the meeting.

The "mystery" is supposed be "exhilerating"...so I hope it's something like Mrs. LL finds a richer American or something like that...I hope! One would hope "exhilerating" would be sort of fun! Like a trip to Mars or something....

Just saw it and I'm sure Wendel Goler was a bit choked up too.
It was quite a moment. I was channel surfing and most of the other stations cut short the shouts and cheering for the President.

How ridiculous Greta looked in her wet weather gear.
If FNC only knew how much we ridicule these phony photo ops.

Ever since Darryl Hannah played that mermaid, she has been a very beautiful empty headed ditz.
