Troops To Stay In Iraq Past "Deadline"

I guess this is the last campaign promise to go by the wayside, unless one counts ending the extension of the Bush tax cuts.

Just saying.

I don't know how long this link will remain, but it's the ABCNEWS.com evaluation of the president's trip to Asia: Strike 1, strike 2, and strike 3.  Irrelevant is the word that comes to mind.

And this is what The (London) Telegraph has to say about the president:
Looking at the 43rd and 44th American presidents right now, it is worth reflecting that it was only the unpopularity of Bush and all he represented that enabled someone as inexperienced and unproven as Obama to ascend to power.

By the same token, perhaps only a performance in office as myopic, self-absorbed and hubristic as that of Obama could have brought about a Bush rehabilitation so swiftly.
And, now, irrelevant.
