Gen. David Petraeus gave his report on the effectiveness of the troop surge in Iraq to Congress Monday. Here are some of the most significant points:
Title Page, Acknowledgments, Introduction, Results, Conclusion, Appendix
Iraqi government officials still being assassinated, but just barely
Most U.S. soldiers can be relied upon to wake up on time
The six guys that Cameroon sent have been awesome
Due to overly negative review, footnote on every page stressing Patraeus' support of U.S. troops
Two of the 18 political and security benchmarks have been met: Birthday parties for all Iraqi parliamentarians are in place, and nobody died at 3:19 a.m. on July 22
By weight, Americans are now the country's majority
What a wild ride it's been
