Timetables

Kristof says we should commit to getting out of Iraq in one year. This

follows his previous call he made last February to get out in (what

was then) about two years.

Good for him, but none of these things are going to happen. Wishes

aren't ponies when it comes to Iraq - whether it's hoping Bush's

policies in Iraq create a pony gusher or hoping that gentle

suggestions by elite pundits will cause those policies to change.

The only way to get any meaningful change in Bush's Iraq policies will

be for the opposition party to get truly radical with respect to

accountability and oversight hearings (assuming they take any

control). But I don't expect the Wise Old Men to approve of that,

either. Bad form, they'll probably say. It's all very depressing.

For the Record

There is no evidence that Congressman Patrick McHenry hasn't spent the

last decade kidnapping babies, raping them, killing them, and piling

them up in his basement shrine to Ronald Reagan.

No evidence at all that he hasn't done this.

Quite shocking, really.

...context here.
