Condi told Ifill the real reason for the early transfer in Iraq
www.juancole.com

excerpt:
This entire exercise is a publicity stunt and has almost no substance to it. Gwen Ifill said on US television on Sunday that she had talked to Condaleeza Rice, and that her hope was that when something went wrong in Iraq, the journalists would now grill Allawi about it rather than the Bush administration. (Or words to that effect). Ifill seems to me to have given away the whole Bush show. That's what this whole thing is about. It is Public Relations and manipulation of journalists. Let's see if they fall for it.

2. Sorry, Condi, the whole world knows who broke Iraq
and in typical fashion, hands it over to someone else to fix.
:eyes:

No more anti-social brats with arrested emmotional developement in the White House!

5. Bush's short attention span is getting the worst of him
He must not want to pay attention to Iraq anymore.

He is having someone else clean up the mess he created. Typical rich boy with short attention span syndrome? :shrug:

3. Ifill is a Media Whore. Ignorant or Paid Mockingbird?
Who knows? It could be either.

One thing we know, Condi SURE puts on a mean spread when wineing and dining her Pet Media Whores.

4. It will look worse than ever when Americans continue to die in Iraq
and the middle east.

Evil Chimp has succeeded in convincing many of his followers that he intends to remove all American troops from Iraq now. Of course he intends no such thing.

Possibly a couple thousand more dim-wits will wake up and notice that American troops are still dying in Iraq in September, October, November...
