Beat The Christmas Rush, Abhor Gore Now

Behold, The Transplanted Saviors of Iraq

Joe Biden, political theorist ordinaire, has a little bumble bee under his bonnet about telling the freely elected government of Iraq just how best to run their affairs. It is truly heartwarming that Joey has embraced federalism for Iraq. Maybe he might start feeling the same about the government he is a duly elected fellow of.

Senate Endorses Plan to Divide Iraq
Action Shows Rare Bipartisan Consensus
September 26, 2007

Showing rare bipartisan consensus over war policy, the Senate
overwhelmingly endorsed a political settlement for Iraq that would divide the
country into three semi-autonomous regions.


The plan, conceived by Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.), was approved 75-23 as a non-binding resolution, with 26 Republican votes. It would not force President Bush to take any action, but it represents a significant milestone in the Iraq debate, carving out common ground in a debate that has grown increasingly polarized and focused on military strategy.

The Biden plan envisions a federal government system for Iraq,
consisting of separate regions for Iraq's Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish populations.
The structure is spelled out in Iraq's constitution, but Biden would initiate
local and regional diplomatic efforts to hasten its evolution.


I find it wonderful when bi-partisanship grips not just congress, but also the presidential primaries. Joey and his newest playground buddy, Sammy, are just anxious to make all playgrounds more just and liveable for all children. Isn't that precious?

Brownback and Biden: On carving up Iraq

Biden and Brownback, a Kansas senator, maintained their plan for Iraq
would be the best solution toward stabilizing the country along the ethnic lines
of the Shias, Sunnis and Kurds, with a loose federal government in Baghdad that
would involve itself in sharing of oil revenues and coinage.


Both men adamantly denied that their legislation, which recently
passed the Senate and awaits House action, would create a forced partition of
Iraq. Instead they said the legislation was aimed at having the Iraqi's
restructure their government as allowed under the country's recently adopted
constitution.


Only one problem Mr Brownback and Mr. Biden.

IT'S NOT YOUR FREAKIN COUNTRY!

But I'm sure you knew that. Right?
