Lofty ambitions reduced to one: Iraq must not be seen as a failure ... Reflecting lowered expectations, the source said the priority for withdrawal was merely that "George Bush is not seen to have failed. He will have to have at least set Iraq on the road to democracy". ... The second priority is also an American one. "The US does not want a legacy of Iran having extended its influence over the Middle East," the source said. ... The third is that Iraqi forces should be able to be responsible for law and order.http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,1575399,00.html

1. Glad to see they've got their priorities straight. |

1) Cover W's ass. 2) Cover the administration's ass. 3) Help the Iraqi people.
Oy.

2. Note the word "responsible" in priority 3. |
|
Then circle back to priority 1.
