A reveler tells me that his name is Hussein, and it doesn’t matter, so maybe he can become president, too. His friend is black, and Obama is black, so maybe he could become president. “It doesn’t matter anymore,” he says.

In response to my question, “So what’s going to constitute a victory?”, Congressman Geoff Davis (R-KY) says the ideal scenario is a stable Iraq that is governed by the rule of law. He says as an obligation to those with whom he served, we’ve got to make sure they’ve got all the support they need, and their voices are heard on the Hill.
