Posted at 11:17am on Mar. 30, 2008 Iraqi Govt. Forces Squish Sadr: The LA Times Tells Us Why That's Bad

whenever there is good news in Iraq, there must be a bad side, after all...

By haystack

Reuters tells us this morning that Mookie has ordered his goons to stand down. This news should be blazing around the world this morning:

Iraqi Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr called on his armed followers on Sunday to leave the streets and stop battling government forces in Basra and other southern towns.

"Because of the religious responsibility, and to stop Iraqi blood being shed, and to maintain the unity of Iraq and to put an end to this sedition that the occupiers and their followers want to spread among the Iraqi people, we call for an end to armed appearances in Basra and all other provinces," Sadr said in a statement given to journalists by his aides.

"Anyone carrying a weapon and targeting government institutions will not be one of us."

Maliki is starting to get the hang of this "Commander in Chief" thing (with a little help from his friends) and Iraq might actually be headed where President Bush and General Petraeus and John McCain and others have been telling us they were headed for quite some time now; fully self-reliant, able to maintain security for the Iraqi people, and capable of attending to their own affairs.

Full stop...

THEN, we come across this trash from the LA Times trying to make the case that this is bad news:

Posted at 11:34am on Mar. 29, 2008 Cue CNN - Get Reid And Pelosi To A Microphone: Declare Defeat Before Someone Wins

SSDD...

CNN is helping set the stage for the Democrats to stand up as the quitters they are, only THIS time Iraqi Soldiers must be declared beaten before the battle is over. Nothing new here, folks...move along now. Two days is enough time to determine that wherever there is resistance from an enemy, the "good guys" need to Tuck Tail and Run™.

The Iraqi military push into the southern city of Basra is not going as well as American officials had hoped, despite President Bush's high praise for the operation, several U.S. officials said Friday.

A closely held U.S. military intelligence analysis of the fighting in Basra shows that Iraqi security forces control less than a quarter of the city, according to officials in both the United States and Iraq, and Basra's police units are deeply infiltrated by members of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Mehdi Army.

"This is going to go on for a while," one U.S. military official said.

"Go on for a while" is all the Democrat Media Wing needs to hear; stiff resistance = fight is lost.

Re-tooled and re-armed by his stick buddy, Ahmadinejad, Mookie is hunkering his sorry fat butt down in a Mosque somewhere while his thugs and minions are executing what appears to be phase III of a proclaimed "civil disobedience" against the Iraqi government. Civil disobedience, apparently, translates into "armed insurrection" over in Iraq...imagine the spray paint-toting hippies down on Constitution Ave. performing this kind of civil disobedience, AK-47 and IED in hand...where do you think THAT would go in a matter of HOURS instead of days?

Posted at 12:11pm on Dec. 7, 2007 War? What War?

we ain't fightin' no stinkin' war!

By haystack

We're trying to shill simple men and women into the White House...don't even THINK about keeping track of what's going on with our men and women over in Iraq fighting the long war so long as these guys here in the States are fighting for their 'right' to sit pretty on Pennsylvania Avenue.

Well, ok-we ARE fighting a war, but we need to make sure we don't actually TALK about it so long as it goes well or sees improvement...problem for the Democrats, however, is that Media Research is paying attention, and they are keeping track of who ELSE is [or is not] paying attention. Consider this:

I believe they still call this unbiased reporting in Journalism school somewhere, no?
