Hold the Phone, Frank

I’m watching Rep Barney Frank on MSNBC, saying that our troops should get out of the way and let the Iraqi army “fight their own battles.”  He says it’s not right that American troops are doing most of the fighting.  

Wait a damn minute.  Who started this misbegotten roshambo?  Not the Iraqis, that’s for sure.  We’re fighting a war against Terrorists that happen to be in Iraq, and in the process we’re fighting a collateral war against Iraq.  We’re fighting them over there, so we don’t have to fight them over here, remember?

Seems to me, the Iraqis have every right to take cover and leave our cheese in the wind.

So it goes, we make what we made since the world began.
