here's another quote that fairly drips with irony from Fearless Leader...

"Having failed to secure Iraqi support for any of the American plans for a transitional government, Bush was asked to whom he would hand the reigns on June 30.
"We will find that out soon," the president said. He assigned the task to Lakhdar Brahimi, the United Nations' special envoy. "That's what Mr. Brahimi is doing," Bush said.
Last month, however, the president declared that "America must never outsource national security decisions to leaders of other countries." That was his response to Democrat John Kerry's call for greater UN involvement in the Iraqi political transition."

so, c'mon you bush believers, explain that bit to us lefty whiners.
