The "New Kurdistan" now being touted as America's "Success in Iraq"
Was anybody just watching NBC? The correspondent was standing in front of Hummer Car Showrooms, eating in gleaming new malls... showing pictures of Dubya hanging over American flags..

(How safe, how nice, how American it is over there)

What could possibly go wrong?:sarcasm:

1. And Did They Report The Increase In Attacks In Kurdistan???
Didn't think so...

Yep, it's all sweetness and light in Iraq. Guess things are just peachy-keen. So that must mean we can bring the troops home, NOW!

A college student is writing a term paper about Elvis. Teenagers are celebrating the end of final exams. Everybody's eating cheeseburgers and flying American flags. Move along, now. Nothing more to see here. :sarcasm:

6. McDonald's got a plug. . Yup! They got McDonalds in Kurdistan.
And a flag, and construction equipment. And a thriving economy. .

Just missing one thing, apparently.

They. Are. Not. A. Country.
