Sovereignty? Says who?
This from GW's speech tonight:

"In the past year, we have made significant progress:
One year ago today, we restored sovereignty to the Iraqi people."

An Iraqi citizen quoted in the NY Times:

"What sovereignty are you talking about?" the butcher, Shaker Assal, 44, exclaimed. "How can you call it sovereignty? You have thousands of occupiers in your country and you call it sovereignty? Iraq has become an American base."
