Petreaus on CSPIN, now reading prepared statement
Things are improving.
The Iraqi Army is growing in size and experience.
Basra, baghdad flare-ups underscore continuing what we have been doing, that has led to lower levels of violence.
(translation - we can't stop now)

We need to build on the progress achieved. and we can continue to draw down resources.

Man, this guy does great political doubletalk.

4. America is not well served.
betrayus, indeed.

Holy shit. The last chart shows an increase in violence from Jan 08 to March 08. But those earlier, trend-showing funky charts show less violence.

which are we to believe? I am soooo confused.

13. Okay... I was trying to figure out if it was someone else
but couldn't quite make the connection. I should had but wasn't quite sure.

Why do you think he made it to where he got? They know how to say nothing by saying something or being clear without being clear.
