US Ambassador to Iraq Zalmay Khalilzad will brief the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the how things are going in Iraq.
Anybody want to make a guess about what he will say?
1: Things are going peachy. We're having a weinie roast next week. Sen. Allen, wanna roast weinies with me?
2: So we had a few startup problems. What new country doesn't have birth pangs? We'll be fine. Just keep signing the checks.
3: Well, ahm, see it's like this:
Khalilzad : Iraq is like an onion.
Senators: It stinks?
Khalilzad : Yes. No.
Senators: Oh, it can make you cry.
Khalilzad : No.
Senators: Oh, you leave em out in the sun, they get all brown, start sproutin' little white hairs.
Khalilzad : NO. Layers. Onions have layers. Iraq has layers. Onions have layers. You get it? They both have layers.
(sighs)
Senators: Oh, they both have layers. Oh. You know, not everybody like onions.

4: Please, please, please don't make me go back to that hellhole. We shouldn't be there. We need to get out as soon as possible. No Govt pension is worth going back there.
What say you?
