US negotiators in Iraq completed a S.O.F.A. with the Parliament that defines the US role in Iraq. Currently the Iraqi Police Force controls 11 of 18 provinces with more being handed over next year.
The MSM will not cover the drop in violence though...

True, though it seems as if they try real hard to avoid it sometimes...most of what you hear about Iraq is the death toll, who died today and about a bomb exploding. No one wants to mention about how many schools we build, or bridges we repair, or lives we rebuild...
The only place I see good news is occaisionally on documentaries on 20/20 or something similar...there needs to be more good news dammit :D
Bubbles -- Media covers stuff only when it gets ratings or is convenient. Joe Wurzenberger was just the main act today.
This is a must watch for good news out of Iraq-- http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=6043729
And if that's indeed true, then the ancient Mayans were correct in their prediction that the world will end in 2012.

His expressing his thoughts on the matter in hand. It makes a lot of sense if you get it.

I know a lot about the Mayan long count/short count and their respective prophecies concerning the 4th age. It is also Biblical in reference, as well. Still it may have been a little off topic.

It may be off topic, but it fits in very well.
And not a day soon enough. If McCain really wanted to cut spending, he would get us out of Iraq. 2 months in Iraq costs more than ALL the pork barrel spending passed in Congress for an entire year.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
