#2 Well, you expect the MSM or any other clown to understand the material they're dealing with? By law American forces are never subordinated. They coordinate, they cooperate, they work with, but they are never subordinated by an intervening command authority. By law there is an unbroken command authority between the private on the ground and the President of the United States.

#3 It's the deal we made, and not a bad one at all. We'll finish up in Iraq, and the new agreement makes it very difficult for Bambi to just up and pull out. Wait and see.
