Blips From The Dark Side

". . .I figured the death of Zarqawi would be the political turning point in the liberation of Iraq - temporarily leaderless and with many cells compromised (thus the 104 dead terrorists in the past few days), the Iraqi government has its shot at asserting its full control over the territory of Iraq (and thus the massive military/police operations in Baghdad and elsewhere in Iraq) before the terrorists could possibly reorganise themselves into effective units again.

We must never forget that this excellent set of circumstances was only possible because President Bush stood firm - while Democrats were calling for a cut and run and even some GOPere were acting like nervous nellies, President Bush held fast and brought us through the rough patch. The man is worth his weight in gold to us - and my only worry is that we won't find a worthy successor in 2008."
