PowerPointRanger Anbar lost? 9/9/2007 2:45:27 AM

I thought Anbar was a write-off! Yet the President of the US stands there fore 7 hours along with SecDef Gates, SecState Rice, Gen Petraeus, & Iraqi PM Maliki. A seriously target-rich photo-op which drew not a shot from the enemy. This is an embarrassment to both the enemy (al Qaeda) and the opposition (dems).
