#3 On his way to the Iraqi detention facility at Abu Ghraib, no doubt to be fitted for fine ladies underwear.

#6 Well this is going to make the Democrats in Congress discussing their "resolution" look like friggin idiots. They don't want the surge, they say it won't work. Day 1 of the surge we get the top Al-Q in Iraq guy and kill his aide. Nope, no results there. Talk about unfortunate timing for the Pelosi/Murtha sedition team. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch.

#7 Khalaf said al-Qaida in Iraq leader Abu Ayyub al-Masri was wounded and his aide, identified as Abu Abdullah al-Majemaai, was killed. Sources tell NBC News that al-Masri is in custody.

#11 The more the Dems talk, the more success we're seeing in Iraq.

Similar phenomenon to the freak blizzards and record cold that accompanys showings of "Inconvenient Truth" and major panel discussions on global warming.

#14 48 hour rule strikes again: DNA tests show it is NOT al-Masri.

(damn that 48 hour rule!)

Well, technically, guys this "surge is a failure" because it was Iraqi troops who shot it out at the Balad corral. Of course, this takes away the Donks "we need to train the Iraqis faster" meme.
