This picture says it all about Iraq

Okay, this picture really says it all about Iraq:

You have to wonder, what would have happened had the insurgents taken some pot-shots at this chopper that Snow and Barlett were riding in? I'm not saying take the chopper out with an RPG or a SAM--that could kill the helicopter's crew. Just a couple of AK rounds to remind Snow and Barlett that they needed to pack some extra pairs of clean underwear.

This is what you get when you work for an administration that has started a war of choice in Iraq.
