Dear Sir/Madam; (Letter/Editor, Statesman Journal, Salem, Oregon)
Well, per Mr. Austin Bay things are going swimmingly in Iraq. (Incremental successes accumulating in Iraq, 2 December '07, P.13c.)
We've turned the corner. In fact, things are going so well that perhaps the tens of thousands of Iraqis who died in this made-up war will spring back to life.
Maybe the thousands of brave American service people who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the war to let Mr. Bush "one-up" his daddy and allow Mr. Cheney to shovel money to his business associates will be re-animated again too. Also, the shattered bodies and minds of the wounded will be recovered soon.
After all, things are going so well there after more than fours years.
Of course, if we were the most powerful nation in the world and given a little competent leadership we could have wrapped this up long ago or not gone there to start with.
But perhaps I am too much more optimistic than Mr. Bay.
