US PRESIDENT George Bush has praised Australia's decision to withdraw its combat troops from Iraq as a sign of both military success and Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's strength of character.

Making the best of a diplomatic setback, Mr Bush said Mr Rudd was not abandoning Iraq, but simply changing mission.

"Obviously, the Prime Minister kept a campaign commitment, which I appreciate," Mr Bush said of Mr Rudd's election promise to withdraw 550 combat troops. "I always like to be in the presence of somebody who does what he says he's going to do. This is a guy who meant it."

Speaking after meeting the Prime Minister at the White House early yesterday, Mr Bush said Mr Rudd's plan was no different from his own intention to withdraw five US brigades by July.

6. Bush Iraq withdrawal

Maybe he figured he has been wrong, and he may end up behind bars when he leaves office. No pension, bars instead. Wonder if he would be wiling to sell his head to science after he dies, like to find what may be in it for brains.

8. WTF??????

I think this administration will try to twist anything around to make it look like it goes with what they've been saying, even if it's diametrically opposite of what they said.

What's really scary is that there is still that 19% in this country that will agree with this idiot.

What's even worse is that HE FORGOT POLAND!!!
