Ahhh, the good ol' days
November 30, 2003—WASHINGTON: Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton ventured into Iraq’s dangerous northern region yesterday, as she took another shot at President Bush for trying to move too fast to get troops out of that country.But you can bring that beer to the sermon here.As she has on each leg of her three-day trip, Clinton questioned the White House battle plan for restoring order and stability to Iraq and Afghanistan.
“It’s going to take more time than has been allotted for the process to take hold,” said Clinton, referring to the July deadline by which Bush aims to transfer power back to the struggling Iraqis.
“I don’t think we should be setting artificial timelines as this is a very challenging undertaking and we need to work with our Iraqi counterparts and make sure that the steps that are being taken are going to work,” added Clinton, who is due back in Washington today.
Clinton completed her tour of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq with a tense trip into Kirkuk, an oil-rich part of the country dominated by the Kurdish people who were oppressed under the regime of Saddam Hussein.

In Basra the signs of the feared militia are slowly receding. For the first time in years alcohol vendors are selling beer close to army checkpoints
Beer has been around for something like 5,000 years. Chirstianity has been aroung for 2 thousand years...Islam...1,400 years. The religion of beer is a survivor.
I'm not quite sure why dumbasses will challenge the religion of beer...it's got a a 5,000+ year track record of beating all other religions//dynasties. Communism..Capitalism...Socialistism... Christianity..Budhism..Islam...Hinduism..The Mrs...beer has beat them all.
I'm happy to see that Grim has returned safely from Iraq. (See also here.)
