How bad are things in Iraq?
Very, very bad. Here's a disturbing fact mentioned in passing during a NPR report that aired on Monday about kidnappings in Iraq:
Some people now tattoo telephone numbers on their arms, so if they are killed their families can be contacted.
And here's Vice President Cheney on CNN two days later:
Bottom line is that we've had enormous successes [in Iraq] and we will continue to have enormous successes.
It must be fun to live outside the reality-based community.


This administration can not seem to balance reality and optimisim at once.
