#1 I read it here a long time ago: Fewer and fewer baddies will get more and more vicious - and the MSM will lap it up - Quagmire! Unwinnable! Civil War! - and then, suddenly, it'll be over.

#2 Bobby, it makes sense, logicallly speaking. I hope to God you're right (or whoever originally said it).

I'm sick and tired of all the negative, pessimistic filth being spewed by the MSM. Can't we for once just say that, all things considered, we're kicking ass and taking names? That despite how bad things might look, we're actually winning? That while it may take awhile, America and the common Iraqi will come out victorious?

I'm surrounded by defeaticrats and liberals who lament non-stop on how Iraq is the biggest foreign policy blunder in modern history and that Bush will go down as the worst President ever. And I'm finding it harder and harder to defend our actions and the President. Not because I've lost confidence in our strategy. Quite the contrary, in fact. It's just the public evidence seems to go from bad to worse. This, I hope and believe, is a good sign. As I've told all the naysayers from the beginning that it will get a lot worse before it gets any better. And right about now, it seems a lot worse.

Could we possibly be at that point? God damn it would be nice if we were.
