I love the fact that when we had a provisional government in Iraq, all the Dems were telling the administration that they couldn't tell the Iraqis what to do.

Now that Iraq has an elected government, the Dems want to dictate to them what they can and cannot do.

Biden wants to divide Iraq into three sections: Shite, Sunni and Kurds.

I also find it interesting that the Administration doesn't mention that our casualties [dead and wounded] have been declining in Iraq over the past three years and that twice as many Iraqi military and police have died than Americans.

American casualties

2004

Dead: 848--Wounded: 7997

2005

Dead: 846--Wounded: 5946

2006 through September

Dead: 533--Wounded: 3559

Total Iraqi Military/Police deaths: 5466

We are winning in Iraq. I don't understand why the WH doesn't do more in making this information public. The Iraqis are fighting and dying for their country and deserve our support. Our declining casualties are a partial reflection of the fact that the Iraqis are shouldering more and more of the load in defending their country.
