President Bush made a surprise visit to Iraq on Monday, leaving the White House secretly Sunday evening to fly to Al Asad airbase, in Anbar province, for meetings with U.S. military commanders, Iraqi leaders and some of the approximately 10,000 American troops stationed there. The trip kicks off a pivotal week for Bush, as Washington girds for a series of progress reports from U.S. Ambassador Ryan Crocker and Gen. David Petraeus on Sept. 10 and 11 that may determine how many U.S. troops will stay in Iraq — and how long they will stay there.

Aides billed the six-hour stop as a fact-finding mission for the President, saying Bush wanted to see for himself what was happening in Iraq, since it will be his responsibility to make the final call about troop levels. "This gives the president an opportunity first hand to hear from people directly involved and make his own assessments at the same time," said National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley on board Air Force One Sunday night.

Woo hoo. Sounds like the boom is getting lowered on the chickenshit crook who would be king over there.

12. See how quickly Palin and her teabaggers have vanished from

the news. Real news supersedes Palin BS. Once again ReTHUGS have been caught with their pants down.

The next time we hear about RW nuts will be the arrests of the pipe bombing gangs.
