Targeting our weak spot
Posted by Richard on May 22, 2007
Glenn Reynolds, with an assist from a reader, came up with the best damn Iraq post I've seen in quite a while. Like much good humor, it's based on truth — in this case, a bitter truth. Because my legions of fans may not all have seen the post at Glenn's little blog, here it is:
THE MAIN FRONT IN THE WAR IS CONGRESS:
Iran is secretly forging ties with al-Qaida elements and Sunni Arab militias in Iraq in preparation for a summer showdown with coalition forces intended to tip a wavering US Congress into voting for full military withdrawal, US officials say.
Well, if they're targeting Congress they're certainly targeting our weak spot.
UPDATE: Reader Drew Kelley emails: "Wouldn't we be better off if we gave them Congress?"
As I've said before, I oppose torture.

Oh, and to further fill your needs for humor and a way to vent, don't miss Glenn's multipart Jimmy Carter poll.
