AP Exclusive: Kissinger says military victory not possible in Iraq
Something you won't be hearing from the msm...

Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who helped engineer the U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam, said Sunday the problems in Iraq are more complex than that conflict, and military victory is no longer possible.

He also said he sympathizes with the troubles facing U.S. President George W. Bush.

"A 'military victory' in the sense of total control over the whole territory, imposed on the entire population, is not possible," Kissinger told The Associated Press

2. I heard this yesterday on the radio
listening to our local AAR affiliate. They use CNN for the 1/2 hr news updates. It seems like the media like the much juicier 'story' about Dowd. Sometimes I wonder if the news editors don't view politics as their own pet political soap opera venture. Saucy details and unending speculation.
