AMMAN, Jordan, Nov. 30 — For days, Arab governments lobbied against any American opening to Iran, Jordanians planned protests against President Bush and politicians braced for a possible announcement of a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq.

But as the summit meeting between President Bush and Prime Minister Kamal Nuri al-Maliki of Iraq concluded Thursday morning, the Arab world was left dumbfounded that nothing had come of it.

“I am baffled by what I saw,” said Abdel Moneim Said, director of the Ahram Center for Strategic Studies in Cairo. “This was an expression of the Americans in deep trouble, but Bush’s approach to dealing with the Iraqi problem also bore the signs of someone out of touch with what is going on.”        READ ME!

Mr. Bush still an idiot

    From this point on I will not be calling our idiot leader President Bush. He is no president and he does not deserve the title.

    Mr. Bush had his little meeting with Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki of Iraq on Thursday and at a press conference said that our troops will not be pulling out of Iraq.

“I know there’s a lot of speculation that these reports in Washington mean there’s going to be some kind of graceful exit out of Iraq. This business about a graceful exit just simply has no realism to it whatsoever.”   Mr. Bush

   Meanwhile, the Iraqi Prime Minister stated that the Iraqi forces could be able to take over a large portion of the security of the country by June.

“I can say that Iraqi forces will be ready, fully ready to receive this command and to command its own forces, and I can tell you that by next June our forces will be ready,” Mr. Maliki told ABC News after meeting Mr. Bush in Jordan.
