Victory in Iraq
In light of the last post and the redeployment of our troops back to CONUS (Continental United States), then there is only one remaining task to be performed. President Bush will not do and and Presumptive President-elect hasn't earned it, so it falls on someone else.
In this case, I submit Zombie to do so; given Zombie already has already done so and proposes we celebrate 22 November as the official day of victory.
The Iraq War is over. We won. The Iraqi people won.
I declare November 22, 2008 to be "Victory in Iraq Day." (Hereafter known as "VI Day.")

What more indication do you need? An announcement from the outgoing Bush administration? It's not gonna happen. An announcement from the incoming Obama administration? That's really not gonna happen. A declaration of victory by the media? Please. Don't make me laugh. A concession of surrender by what few remaining insurgents remain in hiding? Forget about it.
The moment has come to acknowledge the obvious. To overtly declare a fact that has already been true for quite some time now. Let me repeat:
And since there will never be a ticker-tape parade down Fifth Avenue in New York for our troops, it's up to us, the people, to arrange a virtual ticker-tape parade. An online victory celebration.WE WON THE WAR IN IRAQ
More follows at Zombies site:
This isn't written in jest nor do I jest in posting Zombies blog. This is a serious subject and we, as Americans have earned the right to have victory declared. We owe it to our fighting forces to declare victory in Iraq. They fought, bled, and died for it. And succeeded in bringing peace to Iraq even though all the leftists in the world were prophesying defeat at every turn.
Read Zombies post, as usual it is an excellent read and insightful in nature.

The right fine blog Zombietime urges us to declare that today is Victory in Iraq Day. I can empathize, because it's clear that President Bush isn't going to declare a victory. There's been discussion aplenty around here on the merits of the idea, with yours truly the curmudgeonly hold-out asserting that in this kind of war, it's too early to call it a win. Mind you, I hope you're all correct. But I hold a contrarian (and apparently minority) position.Heh. If it all does go well and we leave cleanly in 2011, with a functional nation of Iraq standing tall, I can't wait to...
