He'll be going to Iraq, now that it is safe to go. Seems like the surge, which he called a failure, has worked to protect his narrow ass.

However, the timing of his trip is questionable, since he has already defined his strategy for Afghanistan and Iraq. Ususally one goes on a fact-finding misson before one creates a strategy.


Yes, I've heard that meaningless talking point quite often since Obama left.


Thank goodness you're not responsible for strategy.



I told my husband, "Well, I'm planning to make chicken a-la-king for dinner tonight..." THEN I went to the store. They didn't have the right kind of chicken, so I had to REFINE my plan and decide on a different strategy.

I'm still going to make dinner.
It's still going to be served at the same time.
It's still going to be chicken.
But I had to go the the store before I made a concrete commitment to the specifics of dinner.

I know it's a pretty tough concept to wrap one's mind around, but give it a try.

But yeah, keep with the McCain talking points. They're mighty powerful!


About the only thing in common between your analogy and real life is that they both involve a chicken.
