The President's speech

One of our senators from Indiana, Evan Bayh, along with Hillary and a representative from NY are in Iraq this weekend to see how serious the top Iraqi officials are about trying to fix their country. Should be interesting!!

If you want to read something really interesting about the situation..."Imperial Life in the Emerald City" by Rajiv Chandrasekaran......

Okay, maybe I'll be the first one to admit it, but I haven't paid attention at all to the Iraq war until recently (and that was mostly because it literally took over most of the publications I read).

However, I have paid attention recently and, the way I see it, America is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Pull out now and leave Iraq literally in shambles (which WE, in a large part caused) or send in a surge and HOPEFULLY lessen the civilian killing and HOPEFULLY allow the Iraqis to form their own armies and to regain control. The way I see it, we choose for the Iraqis - civil war or American surge?

As a northern Californian living in a very liberal area, of course I hate Bush. And of course I hate this war. But, honestly, I think a surge might be the better of the two evils.
