The newest lie

The problem with telling a pack of lies is that the liar has to keep lying. Once the facts creep into the picture the whole operation will fall apart.

The new lie (er,talking point) has to do with the Iraqi security forces. It will be amusing to see if this fig leaf can cover the multitude of sins that have stacked up in Iraq. I expect to hear that the Iraqi security forces have made remarkable progress, and that they are ready to take on the insurgency. That's right people, young Iraqi men are flocking to join the Quisling army just like the young Americans that are lining up to join the U.S. Army. Bush has inspired so many to join the struggle(for the other side). As Iraqi forces stand up, our forces will stand down. The check is in the mail and the troops will be home by Christmas. Oh wait, the troops don't want to come home, to cut and run would destroy their morale. So many of them are looking forward to their third tour it would be unfair to take that away from them.

Yes, the Iraqi security forces are gonna be capable of doing so much you won't believe it. Unless you're really gullible.
