Charlie's Show Prep #2

Here are some good items for Charlie Sykes' show this morning:

  • The Iraq government wants a timetable for the withdrawal of foreign forces. This is good news. Iraqi input is key. The whole point of the war was to kick out Saddam and install a regime of liberty. Having anti-Bush Democrats decide when troops should leave didn't make sense. The Iraqi government knows better how well its internal security is. This is a sign the new government is confident it can stand on its own--which was the whole point of a continued U.S. presence.
  • will become the first female German chancellor, but the the unstable coalition she had to build won't make her a continental version of Margaret Thatcher.
  • Some people who care too much about how a bird feels are willing to pay through the nose for . Do they care as much about the unborn?
  • High taxes and unions are forcing to take its manufacturing out of the state. What's the point of economic plans to create new businesses if the state's business climate drives them away?
  • Rep. J.D. Hayworth will call for more pro-war votes if the Democrats keep harping.
That should be plenty to get you started, Charlie.
