Iraq: Always 'Six Months' Away From Victory
It's becoming a running joke among war critics how supporters of it always tell us that the next few months are crucial in Iraq and we all just need to be more patient... usually, an interval of 'six months' is given for everyone to shut up and see the inevitable progress. They tell us this now in 2007, they said it in 2006, and in 2005, and in 2004, and in 2003. It's almost as if they're a bunch of delusional liars!
On this note, Think Progress has created an interactive, flash-based timeline of the "broken record we've been hearing from our leaders." This is a must-bookmark page.

Fantastic website, thanks for the link. I was actually laughing as I scrolled through the time line. If it wasn't so sad, it would be even funnier. So either they're all just stalling and lying, or they are using a measurement of time equal to that of the creation story in the new testament. You know, one day actually equals several years, several months equal a decade, and so on.
