This is solely to cash in on Zarqawi death. Nothing more, nothing less. IMHO.

1. LOLS war summit?!
We've wanted help from the rest of the world for 3 years and have had, up until now, a "lone gun" President.

Fuck these assholes.

2. You could be right - you'd have to look at how long ago this was planned
Of course if you thinke the Zarqawi death was staged (not saying you do or don't), I suppose that won't help.

4. Maybe they should try
something entirely new and radical.

Policy instead of bullshit. Nah, never happen. Not with this administration.

5. In other words
their plans for Iran have fallen apart. They're all facing indictment and they've lost their mojo. Time for Plan B.

7. White House has changed tactics
This is a new scheme to generate support. It probably originates with the new chief of staff.
Last week we saw Condi and Bush making statements about negotiations with Iran and a quote from someone who
added that Bush was sounding out different solutions.
In truth this is the start of a scheme to make the president sound as if he actually considers or cares what
others think. In reality we know he does not and if any reporter would ask the tough questions it would show.

I guess all the fun making of "the decider" really got to him.

Iraq's was easy but the US treasury is 'haaard, haaard work'
