According to a high profile general if the new Iraq constitution isn't signed ready soon, and the elections aren't held shorly after that troops could be in Iraq till long after Bush leaves office. Worst case, they will have over 100,000 soliders in Iraq for four more years.
He didn't even imply that they would be totally out of the country. Democrats are urging a total withdrawl from the country. Their counterparts take issue claiming it would have been a defeat if they just pull out now.
Is there any end in sight?

"Echelon Life Line"
The lastest battle in the Echelon Wal-Mart took place last week. PREIT has a 30-day extention to get their Wal-Mart plan approved. It approved once, than it turned out it wasn't done right so they Mall was set back yet again.
In the mean time the Mall has slipped farther into a coma. Nathans pulled out of the food court. In addittion Fredericks of HOllywood (or was it the other one?) pulled out.
The people that are against the Wal-Mart think they have a better idea. They want an a main street type place. With a place for people to walk and ride bikes with some offices, shops and resturants. Basically, they are trying to be like Collingswood. The didn't mention trying to attract a large amount of homosexuals to compete with Collingswood though.
I don't know if anyone from these protest groups have any business background at all. So, it comes off pretty comical that they tell the company with a proven track record with malls to do with their investment.
Anyway, with Mainstreet, and the Ritz and Eagle shopping centers I don't really see this being a big better plan.
Its very likely that the tug of war will end in an empty mall for many years to come. Perhaps sometime in September the Wal-Mart war will finally come to and end. ITs been over a year since the whole plan frist came to light.

"AVs Dumb Move"
The Flyers may have made the right moves for free agency, but the AVS must have made the strangest.
They signed Brad May, who used to play for Vancouver. If you recall two years ago, Brad May basically put a bounty on the head of Colorado forward Steve Moore who took out Vancouver star player Mark Naslund. The next game between the two teams Todd Bertuzzi decided he would be the one to make Moore pay. He was a bit overzealous and broke Moore's neck. He was slapped on the wrist by the NHLfor 20 games. Of course it would have been longer (at least I hope) had there been a season. I think the ruling to let him back for opening night is awful.
Season ticket holders are pissed and are not renewing and Colorado is getting flooded with angry emails. I don't blame them. May is basically taking Moore's roster spot. Not only that May was named in a suit that Moore (who likely will never play hockey again) in a suit. This on top of losing the best player in the world.
It just makes no sense to me. I mean players like May are a dime a dozen.
