IT'S A MIRACLE!!! Iraq has SUDDENLY gotten MUCH BETTER in the past 24 hours!!! Praise Jesus, it's a freaking MIRACLE!!!

That headline is never going to get old. Well, the latest miracle in Iraq: Baghdad is now MUCH MUCH MUCH safer!

That's why land travel for US government employees has been banned everywhere in Iraq, including Baghdad (other than the Green Zone) - because Baghdad is now a LOT safer than it was when we COULD travel by land safely. That's also why George Bush couldn't visit Baghdad only two weeks ago - because it's a LOT safer than it was the last time he was ABLE to visit.

You can spin a lot of things. A dead body isn't one of them.
