Sunni surge better than US surge

Quote Of The Day

"If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you. "

--Lyndon B. Johnson, In Tennessee, an off-the-cuff observation he made to a young staffer, Bill Moyers.

BBC is reporting the "Sunni extremist surge seems to be having more effect than the American one."

One more example that Iraq is a Dollar Auction: each time we up the ante, so does "the extremists". Bush keeps telling us we can't afford to lose. Trouble is, neither can the other side(s). So the game will go on until one side wises up and walks away.

Nothing to win here. Please move on.
