Progressive Minds

How ironic is this, lol!  George Bush and his apologists love to say that those speaking out against the war in Iraq are embolding the terrorists.

Well, it appears as though they are getting some of their own medicine, courtesy of Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki.

Maliki was responding to recent comments by Condi Rice, who said Maliki's government was on borrowed time.  In response, Maliki said "Certain officials are going through a crisis. Secretary Rice is expressing her own point of view if she thinks that the government is on borrowed time, whether it is borrowed time for the Iraqi government or the American administration....I wish that we could receive strong messages of support from the US so we don't give some boost to the terrorists and make them feel that they might have achieved success. I believe that such statements give moral boosts to the terrorists and push them towards making an extra effort and making them believe that they have defeated the American administration, but I can tell you that they haven't defeated the Iraqi government."

Maliki calls for more US arms for Iraqi army
