US TROOPS WITHDRAW FROM IRAQI CITIES: SHOCK AND AWESOME CREW WILL BE THERE

OK this one, no. It's not in our budget. In fact, given the subway fare hikes, three rides to Harlem for the Apollo MJ tribute barely fits in the budget. However, this is a landmark day. This is the day we give back Iraq to the Iraqis and the country starts to turn into either a template for Arab democracy or descends into chaotic Hanoi in 1975. South Vietnam was taken over by the North only a short time after we pulled out of the longest war (or should we say "conflict") in U.S history, unless of course you count the Korean war. This often overlooked bloodbath began in 1950, to which no truce has ever been signed. Given Kim Jong Il's antics lately, it appears as though we may be filming the next M.A.S.H (popular show in the 1970s based on the Korean War) in 2020. Anyway, please excuse the rambling, this war stuff gets me foaming at the mouth in shitkicking coffeee rush excitement.  A special congrats goes to General Odierno whose 3 tours of duty , and fine focus has spearheaded the guidance that has brought us to this day. Let's hope for everyone's sake that things move in positive direction from here on in over there. read article
