On this day in 2008:
Is it me, or does W smirk after that first bob and weave? We miss that about him. Prime Minister al-Maliki impressed us going for the block in a show of American-Iraqi solidarity.
It's been so long we had to look up the Iraqi PM's name. A war that we followed everyday throughout 2007 and 2008, from the the death of Zarqawi*, Anbar Awakening, The Surge**, and finally the Battle of Basra in March/April of 2008. When someone opened up a KFC in Fallujah that summer, we knew we'd won the war.
Was it worth all that? Well, we wouldn't do it again.
*Spell check recognizes
**We supported The Surge before it worked.
