Bush in Baghdad

Here is President Bush’s Thanksgiving Proclamation. And, just in case you have been in your basement all day, note that President Bush made a visit to Iraq today. He spent two and a half hours on the ground with 600 troops. It was done in great secrecy, and it worked. The troops were shocked, but very happy. He got an uprorious reception from them and you could tell W. was moved. He gave a good
speech
to the troops. I am betting that our enemies are not amused by this brilliant caper. Good for Bush, good for our troops. If anyone doubted that we are in Iraq for the long haul, this trip and his words in Baghdad should remove any doubt. A very useful move. Happy Thanksgiving! Here is the Washington Post story on the trip. And the one from USA Today. And from FOX News.

The troops were thrilled, until Bush informed them that the it was going to cost them $1,000 per plate!
