When Push Comes To Shove

BAGHDAD (AP) -- Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki shrugged off U.S. doubts of his government's military and political progress on Saturday, saying Iraqi forces are capable and American troops can leave "any time they want."
Remember when Bush said on TV, nationally, that if the Iraqi government asked us to leave, we would?

Well, the above statement by Iraqi Prime minister Nouri al-Maliki is about as close as you can get to being asked(or told) to leave. He might actually ask(ot tell) us to hit the road, then it's put up or shut up time for good old President Bush.

Things just may get real interesting, real fast.

I'll keep it in my prayers...You keep your fingers crossed.
As many lies as he's told already, the track record doesn't look good.

Maybe Pelosi & Co. will dig up some dirt on him, & say "Do what we want, or we call the press" (Worked for J. Edgar Fagot).
