When the violence is down in Iraq, the Administration says that the Surge is a success.
When the violence is up in Iraq, the Pentagon says that the Surge is a success.
The mind boggles.
Elsewhere in the world that Bush has managed to fuck up to a fare-thee-well, the parliament in Pakistan has a majority of parties that are not exactly friendly to Bush. They are in the process of choosing a new Prime Minister, they are restoring to office the judges that Bush's buddy Pervez Musharraf fired and imprisoned and they may be able to oust Musharraf.
So what does the Bush Administration do to promote good relations with the new guys in Pakistan? Bombing their country, of course (he can't give them tax cuts). One of the things that pisses off the Pakistanis the most is American airstrikes on their territory, so let's do even more of that while we negotiate with the new guys!
The story mentions a saying in those parts: "Kill one person, make ten enemies." George Bush has made millions of enemies for the US.
The sad thing is that Bush only has one life to live out in a prison cell.
