So...That's Not Good, Right?

Apparently, the government in Iraq is not quite up to the task of governing.

Our nation's top analysts and spymasters gave a "sobering" report on how ass-backwards Iraq is, which probably cost a sick amount of taxpayer money to tell us the same thing that retarded 7-year olds know - we are still not in control in this war and the government we propped up will likely collapse as we inch further away from the scene of the crime. Did I mention the 'tard kid has a bad eye?

Strained by violence and sectarian differences among its political parties, Iraq's neighbors will also try to expand their leverage in the fractured state, anticipating the US pullout, according to the new National Intelligence Estimate. This slickly named report claim some security progress but also highlights Iraq's feuding groups. Regardless, come September, the president will undoubtedly spin a positive report on this year's troop buildup. In fact, they're starting already.

"This is a government that is learning — frankly — learning how to govern," White House spokesman Gordon Johndroe said. "No, it is not moving nearly as fast as everyone in Washington, D.C., would like it to move."

What a ringing endorsement.
