Though you wouldn’t realize it if you follow the mainstream media (or listen regularly to Obama’s rhetoric, which amounts to almost the same thing), we (and the Iraqi people) are making a great deal of progress in Iraq. The situation has turned dramatically from what it was even a couple of years ago. There’s a fantastic article on recent Iraq developments by Charles Krauthammer at the Patriot Post. You can read it here. Krauthammer calls for John MccCain to make this fact a substantial part of his platform. Is that a good strategy? I can’t see why not.
