What does Will Pitt mean by this statement in today's article
by him?



"Everyone can relax. This thing is clearly getting ready to wind down. Ask the brilliant minds up at the Pentagon. Back in April 2003, a formal Pentagon planning session stated emphatically that the U.S. occupation of Iraq would be coming to an end in December 2004. It is December by my calendar, so clearly we should start planning the tickertape parade down the Canyon of Heroes. "


"It will all be over by the end of the month."

I've just read the other posts about his prediction that JFK will be back in the game tomorrow. Let me see if I understand what he is saying....the war will be over AND Kerry is back in the game???

How can ALL of this be true? Please explain.

5. That looks like heavy sarcasm on "the brilliant minds up at the Pentagon"
Hey, according to their time table we should be done. And of course they never make a mistake, right? So... any time now we should be just up and out of there. Yesiree bob.
