According to Newsweek, Iraqs economy is booming.
Swell, when are the the appointed iraqi puppet government leaders going to start repaying the $300 BILLION (plus interest) that is owed to YOU AND I, the American Taxpayer, who have gone into debt at the direction of the bush administration, to save their sorry muslim asses.
The Tax-Payers are waiting.

Best news yet! This ought scare the DUmmie Progressive anti-capitalists.... Do you think John F'ing Kerry noticed the thriving business climate while he was there? Hmmmmm.... Probably looking the other way, methinks.

One of the problems for generating electricity that's sufficient is that there are now so many people using it than under Saddam. Another problem was how little Saddam ever invested in electrical power production.

Saddam also used to ration electricity and use it as a political weapon. Today, most of Iraq [territory] has more electricity than before the war.

It'll be much worse.
We're gonna' have to hear talking heads talking about
"THE IRAQI ECONOMIC MIRACLE!"
And Pelosi and Reid will be the "Parents of The New Iraq".
Heck, if Iraq gets better, I'll just have to swallow the liberal bilge.
