I will use an analogy to better explain exactly what's happening on the ground in Iraq. Retired Army Col. Doug Macgregor described our efforts as a “cash-for-peace” scheme. In fact, I believe it’s a “cash- for- piece- of- Shiite- ass” scheme. Permit me to explain.
The fact is that we’re splurging in Iraq too quickly. But after a few months, I promise you, Iraq will turn to someone younger and Muslimier than us... Iran!
The fact is that it’s going to be very hard to withdraw before we splurge again.

Osama bin Laden:
Hey, you still coming over tonight? It's at Kim's place. Bring beer.

One rule: dress ghetto FABULOUS!
General, I LOVE the hat.
Laden, I'm sorry but your turban is a hot mess! I'm not criticizing Islam, I'm just saying it couldn't hurt to watch an episode of What Not To Wear every now and then.
P.S. I rented The Manchurian Candidate. I know, I know. It's a guilty pleasure.

General, watch your back.... because this petty dictator can PAAAARTY!
P.S. And Kim, please tell me you got the remake. I'm not asking because it takes place in the Middle East, but because I LOVE Denzel!
P.P.S. Either way, I'm bringing my copy of What Women Want.

If only you guys were trapped in your little illustrations on this comment board. I could have completed the axis of evil triple play

You wish, General!
Small known fact. Afganistan/Pakistan/Saudi Arabia didn't make the axis of evil play list. It'd just be a double play. No biggie. But Saudi Arabia was really pissed.
Anywhooooo, just to keep things interesting. Psssst, General. Here's a hint: Afghani/Pakistani border...
