Jonah Goldberg (NRO) has a truly wicked sense of irony:

Iraqis are cheering in the streets.

The Minister of Information is dressed like a woman in the back of a chicken truck barrelling for the Syrian border, explaining to the flock that the infidel invaders are being slaughtered in the desert.

Jacques Chirac snorted his cafe au lait through his nose when he turned on CNN this morning. He turned to al Jazeera, but there were still Iraqis dancing in the streets.

Janeane Garafolo is shopping for knee pads because she promised to crawl on broken glass to Fox News and apologize if this happened. She'll weasel out, but that's okay because Iraqis are beating statues of Saddam with their shoes.

The wobbly hawks like Josh Marshall are wondering why they switched teams in the third quarter. Maureen Dowd still doesn't get it, but it takes more than a war to make her understand. But that's okay because kids have been released from the Tyke Gulag -- and the gang at the Nation need to come up with a reason why that's a bad thing.

Antiwar protestors are circling their picnic blankets and fingering the dregs of their trail mix bags, wondering what to do next like dogs whose food bowl's been moved. They'll figure something out, alas. But they'll have to explain how sanctions and inspections would have resulted in Iraqis cheering in the streets.

The war isn't over, of course. Our troops who've made us all so proud are still in harms way. Tikrit must be deloused. Weapons must be found. And the really hard work of making Iraq a decent country must still get underway. But you can't take away from the fact that today is a very good day.

That is really great.

But you can't take away from the fact that today is a very good day.

Yes, It is, indeed.

That's GOLD, Timeout, pure GOLD! ROFL.......
