Quotable
This is really too funny. From Juan Cole:
AP says that Secretary of State Condi Rice asserted Saturday that Iraqis only have a future if they stay within a single state. She pointed to Vietnam's success in reforming its economy and making up with the United States and held it out as a model to Iraq.

Whaaat?
Whaaat indeed. You know things have gotten bad when Bush uses Vietnam to prove the importance of staying the course (pissing off his hosts in the process), and Condi uses Vietnam to prove that national unity works.
