Tragically Funny
Iraq continues to provide unending entertainment:
The Post fronts the uncovering last month in Iraq of a death squad staffed with Shiite police.
This has become pretty commonplace. You know, who are the good guys and who are the bad guys? But this makes it positively comical:
It wasn't hard to figure out what the cops were up to. Stopped at an Iraqi army checkpoint, they said they were on their way to execute a prisoner.
That's good of them to be honest that way. Perhaps integrity is being restored to the Iraqi police force!

But then, topping the honesty of the Iraqi police, an American general has the quote of the day:
"We have found one of the death squads," a U.S. general told the Chicago Tribune. "They are a part of the police force of Iraq."

Another dozen men were found yesterday bound and executed.
THAT'S why he gets the big bucks. It's quick thinking along these lines that makes Bush's great Iraq adventure such a phenomenal success!
