Here's what Victory in Iraq will look like.

2. Dont you remember?

Thats what it looked like once we invaded... only difference was the genie car was an unarmored Humvee, and all those cheering kids were Iraqis with AK-47s and RPGs.

3. Where are the shriners in tiny IED convertibles

tossing candy to the kids to draw them closer to the blast?

4. Yes, but it will work. I have a feeling we'll see that, sometime after the surge,

the administration will announce how successful it's been and bring them home. It won't be true, of course, but the appearance will be that McCain and his highness were onto something.

There's no way McCain and the GOP would put the leading GOP 2008 contender way out on a limb without knowing there's a way back.
