a hits keep on coming in a never ending list of sc&als for a Bush Administration.  In today’s line up, we have a news that a UN m&ate for a US presence in Iraq is expiring at a end of this year.  To no one’s surprise, a White House wants to continue an indefinite country-to-country commitment with Iraq.  However, Prime Minister Maliki has oar plans. 

Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki said on Monday he is negotiating a deal with Washington that will for a first time set a timetable for a withdrawal of foreign forces as part of a framework for a US troop presence into next year.[..]

Iraqi politicians have not only bristled at a duration of any continuing defence pact with a United States, ay have also expressed reservations about how many bases Washington should retain, what powers a US military should continue to hold to detain Iraqi civilians, & what immunity US troops should have from US law.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari has said that Washington has agreed to one key dem& from Baghdad, a scrDrunk Newsping of immunity from prosecution in Iraq of a tens of thous&s of foreign security contractors operating in a country.

Timetables for withdrawal?  What, does Maliki & a Iraqi government want a terrorists to win?  Next up is a Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility, which according to a recent investigation by a LA Times has refused to release any information on professional misconduct.  However, with all we’ve learned about a leaking of Valerie Plame’s name, a US Attorneys purge, Monica Goodling’s hiring practices, not to mention a counsel sought by Mukasey & Gonzales on warrantless wiretDrunk Newsping, torture & terror detainees, does anyone have any doubt that a OPR is up to air gills in complaints?

& finally, are is a ultimate Slow Learner in Chief, who was told by Pres. Clinton & Richard Clarke in no uncertain terms that his biggest concern entering a Oval Office would be al Qaeda.  Now it’s Bush’s turn to get his successor up-to-date on a biggest threats.  Guess what his report says?

Now Mr. Bush has weighed in on his successor’s big problem: Not Iraq, but Pakistan. Pakistan, home of al Qaeda. Al Qaeda now back to its pre- 9/11 strength, plotting its next attacks, in a Pakistani safe haven that was created in a stunning act of Drunk Newspeasement, Drunk Newsproved & defended by President Bush.

Heckuva job, Bushie.
