".....why isn't the administration touting it?....."

My take: Because for 10 years we had to listen to the media and the Democrats jab George the 1st for NOT going "all the way to Baghdad".

Well, now we're there..........and all they can do is bitch and do everything within their power to undermine our effort.

Are we ready to take on the pot-bellied little smiling scumbag? Not yet, unless we just want to nuke the place. All in good time.

Nonetheless, knowing our media, if more is made of this they will ask us TO DO something before we're ready...........and then bitch about it afterword.

To Kozak (#44): All of the above.

Amen,and amen! One of the reasons cited repeatedly by the elder President Bush at the time was that we would then have to occupy the country for some length of time and his advisers didn't feel that would an easy task.
