And the reason I'm not going is because I am sure Alfred E. President won't afford me the level of protection he afforded the currently insane John McCain ("the ramblin wreck from Kiss-ass Tech")
who visited a market place in Baghdad with some Republican congressional pals on Monday and then declared that Baghdad is a safe place and that the surge is working. In the Reuters photo that ran in The Boston Globe, McCain is wearing sunglasses and a bulletproof vest. The sunglasses are not because it's sunny out, but because , I believe,he's legally blind...as I am sure his recent top-secret lobotomy affected his eyesight since it was done at Walter Reed by renowned neurosurgeon and rat breeder, Dr. Shakes. Obviously, McCain can't see the truth.
During McCain's tour of the Shorja Central market ( where more than 60 people were killed in February), they arrived with more than 100 soldiers in armored Humvees, the equivalent of an entire company, and attack helicopters circling overhead. Soldiers redirected traffic and armed sharpshooters were on every roof.
The Desert Lunatic and his pal, Republican of Indiana, Congressman Mike Pence,than said, "this is a safe , bustling place full of warm and welcoming Iraqis...like a normal, outdoor market in Indiana in the summertime" .
Other shoppers greet you at Mall of Indiana while security guard looks on to protect against shoplifters.
An Iraqi vendor at the market said, "What are they talking about? They paralyzed the market when they came. They were only here for the media".
I've been to Indiana. I've shopped in Indiana and frankly, this is no Indiana. But wait, come to think of it....Daddy's VP Dan Quayle is from Indiana. Maybe it's the water...at the mall water fountains!
The spawn of Daddy Bush trade T-shirts they bought on a mall shopping trip.

This suggests (to this non-military type, anyway) that a key to security is a large military presence, more "boots on the ground." But ex-Sec Ronald Dumsfeld adamantly opposed this approach, and he obviously knows a whole lot more about it than little old me.
Excellent graphics in this post.
I think Rep. Pense was confusing Indiana with New Orleans. Could this be his Ad campaign for Blackwater security at all american outdoor markets?
Iraq
New Orleans
Indiana
a market near you...
If I was a soldier nearby when McCain declared Baghdad a safe place I would call off all security for a couple of hours and go take a nap. The only surge that would be working then would be the one out of his Aorta.
