First, The Surge...

Then, It All Recedes...

Why John McCain says we'll be in Iraq for A Hundred Years. Because it's a goddamned mess.

Iraq moves against some US-backed Sunni fighters

This AP story is either:

A) A terribly sloppy piece of writing
B) A picture of how short-sighted Gen. David Petraeus was in his buy-'em-all-off road to "victory"
C) A view of how insane (and incompetent) the Iraqi government under Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has become
D) A view of how powerful, though dormant, the bought-off Sunnis have been
E) All of the above
