Hurry Up!
This is funny, the byline for an article in the New York Times:
U.S. WARNS IRAQ THAT PROGRESS IS NEEDED SOON
A top U.S. commander told Iraq’s premier to make political progress by next month to counter the growing tide of opposition to the war in Congress.
In other words: sure, we may have invaded your country and totally screwed it up, but would you please have a little decency and put it back together, say, by next month? Our cheese is melting over here.
U.S. Admiral William Fallon had these fine words to say:
“You have the power.”
“You should take the initiative.”
“Is it reasonable to expect it to be completed in July?”
