Pretend transfer of sovereignty is dangerous to Democrats
This was a good political move by bush in that it hides the true intent of the conquest of Iraq and takes the heat off as the press pretends we are nearing the end of this affair. Most Americans do not know of the strategy of an empire of bases. The media spin will always be "freedom for Iraq'. The problem the Dems have is that many of them share the dream of forced hegemony. Unless someone speaks out with the truth, the momentum enjoyed by the Moore movie may erode.

1. nope, the sheeple think that the turnover means the troops come
home,

they are gonna be pissed when the local guardsmen keep getting called up. this may be a week long bump, but it won't last long once people realize their troops and treasure are still heading to Iraq

3. If I was an "insurgent", this is how I would see it.
Kill the appointed leader, elect Kerry.

Let it all calm down until November so BushCo can go back to running the election on taxes and gay marriage as they intended, elects the continuous money tree called a Shrub.

4. I hope many of you are right
and Americans will start to search for facts instead of only thinking of their immediate economic gratification and their blind trust of their own jingoism and limited shallow media reporting.
