Fraid mine doesn't count for much, Turk, especially since my wife went shopping again today. My guess is that W isn't going to write anything down that would p*** off the Kurds while we're warming up the jets.
However, to give you some solace, I don't see how it would be in the US advantage anyway to promote independent Kurds. We would want Turkey to guard the left flank while we wrap up Baghdad and then go to Tehran & eastward.
