I think CBS may be starting to realize that being ultra-liberal is not a good business model.

I guess better late than never.

I find this odd,maybe it's me,but I have actually seen more positive stories on Iraq from the old media since the last election.

Why would that be?

Storyline - "Everything is going good in the Kurdish part of Iraq ...

... however, in the rest of Iraq ... America is losing the war ... Bush is evil ... Bush lied to us ... Nancy Pelosi ... Military officers in Baghdad tell us ..."

Just the ads for this right now during the Nissan are sickening. The tone of incredulity that anything is going right is disgusting.

I find it hard to believe they are doing a positive story but I will take it!

Any peace they're enjoying in Kurdistan is solely courtesy of the Bush Administration. If the Dems don't want any of the credit, fine.

Besides improving their lives, I sure hope to heck that the Kurds are quietly investing in as many advanced weapons that they can get their hands on. Especially field artillery and air defense weaponry.

They are surrounded on all sides by wolves, and the future is as uncertain as it can get. They may face destruction, or unparalleled opportunity.

Without warning, all of Iranian Kurdistan may be dropped into their laps, making them Greater Kurdistan, and the same applies to the Kurdish lands in Syria. Their Peshmurga must be ready and able to occupy and defend these lands, and also to defend against the powerful armies around them.

Ironically, by being in a restive area, the Arab Iraqi army is getting far more military expertise, both in training and experience. Living in peace, the Kurds are denied this priceless education.

Fair warning to the Kurds: do not trust to America for your defense, for all too soon, forces in America that do not love you may gain the upper hand, and abandon you to your fate.
