Victory - Again!

The ghostwriters at the Amarillo Globe-Republican have once again claimed Victory for the U.S. in this morning's paper, and I quote: "Victory comes in the form of more than 10 million Iraqis who voted Thursday for 275 members of the country's new national assembly." There you have it - Victory! - let's see - how many victories is that? The aircraft carrier speech; the January 2005 elections; capturing Saddam (by the way, I saw on a blog that it has been 1,550 days since the prez said we'd get Osama "dead or alive," just as an aside!), voting for the constitution; well, you get the idea.

We keep getting the "victories" that the preznit and his mouthpieces keep saying would signal - victory? - so we can begin bringing our troops home. Well, it certainly is a moving target, isn't it! Thanks Globe-Republican for another Victory!
