What the heck is going on in Iraq?

Via The Corner, something that absolutely flummoxed me:

On the Iraqi elections:


It's also the most critical moment in the history of Iraqi democracy. Can there be a peaceful transfer of power? Maliki has been speaking — threatening about using the army or calling out the mobs in order to stop Allawi. If he does, this will be a very difficult day for us and a huge setback for any chance of democracy in Iraq.
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? I mean, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Foxtrot Foxtrotting Foxtrot?

Is there nobody in this Administration who can explain to Maliki just what thousands of American dead mean? I mean, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Foxtrot Foxtrotting Foxtrot?

Or is the State Department occupied 24/7 with putting the Wood to Israel? I hope not: one of my nephews works there. Or is The Corner and Krauthammer full of Bravo Sierra?

Believe me, last thing I want is for Maliki to get his Al Gore on, and stomp his feet about the election results. The thing is, regardless of the outcome, the Sunnis are gonna be pissed anyway.

What else have they done in this administration?
Of course Sec State just HAD to quote "...my friend - and my husband's friend - Rahm Emanuel, who said you can't let a crisis go to waste..." nuthin 'bout SOLVING the crisis, just using it to advance the agenda.

Are you kidding? This administration's foreign policy has consisted exclusively of trashing our allies and kissing our enemies' asses. What makes you think this bunch of Chicago thugs wouldn't stoop to sabotaging Bush's legacy on Iraq? After all, it's only the security of the United States we're talking about, and they sure haven't shown much interest in that up to date.
