You know, it's bad when the guy gets taken in by Vladimir Putin, but at least Putin's a pro. Being taken in by Nouri al-Maliki is worse than responding to a Nigerian money-laundering e-mail.

We can only hope that Maliki, Aziz al-Hakim and Sadr will all get together to work things out, and a nice suicide bomber will drive into the place in a truck bomb. Complete chaos and a power struggle would have to be better than those clowns.

Y'all know what this is about, right? Sadr seems poised to win provincial elections in Basra, which has enormous graft potential because it's where the oil and stolen cars are exported from, and the luxury goods smuggled in. If they don't take out the Mahdi Army before the elections, Sadr winds up with a blank check, and Maliki and al-Hakim wind up with as vice chairs of the street-sweeping subcommittee.

You think the Clinton people are willing to take down the system for ambition, you should see any random Iraqi politician up close.

Government troops have faced stiff resistance in neighborhoods controlled by the Mahdi Army in Basra, Iraq's second-largest city, 340 miles southeast of Baghdad. Residents spoke of militiamen using mortar shells, sniper fire, roadside bombs and rocket-propelled grenades to fight off security forces.

A Pentagon official said Wednesday that reports from the Basra area indicate that militiamen had overrun a number of police stations. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

Street battles that started Tuesday in Basra and Sadr City have spread to several other neighborhoods and southern cities, leaving more than 200 dead, including civilians, Iraqi troops and militants. That three-day figure was a rough estimate provided by police and hospital officials who could not give a more specific breakdown.

Yes Sir, Mr. President, a "very positive" development indeed.
