The soldiers aren't even there yet and they've gone into hiding? Nice. This is even better than when we rolled into Iraq and the resistance faded away, like cockroahces scatter when a light is turned on.

THE VICE PRESIDENT: So there are a number of things that you plan for that didn't happen, but still it's warfare, there are always surprises. And I think it would be fair to say the insurgency has been stronger than anybody anticipated.

And I think it would be fair to say the insurgency has been stronger than anybody anticipated.

It's a legitimate, worthy military opponent with guns and bombs, provided in large part by Iran and Syria. Iran arms the Shiite militias, Syria funds the Sunni resistance. I'm always amazed at the Main Stream Media in the US who claim that there are no al Qaeda elements in Iraq. Somebody apparently forgot to tell al Quada who proudly trump their presence there on a daily basis.

All with one goal, make life miserable there so to chickens on the left in America give up and go home. They get satellite TV and see CNN. They know damn well what is going on politically within our country.
