Success in Iraq

Josh Marshall links to this New York Times article to discuss how Bush's corruption is torpedoing the war effort. The short version: A major factor in collapsing a deal on oil revenues has been a Kurdish deal with Dallas oilman and Bush buddy Ray L. Hunt.
Josh Marshall:

But remember, Hunt, in addition to being the son of legendary Texas John
Birch Society extremist H.L. Hunt, is also
a pal of the president's. Indeed, President Bush has twice appointed Hunt to his
Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board. So while the president is striving to get
the Iraqis to meet these benchmarks one of his own pals -- and more importantly,
political appointees -- is busy helping to tear the whole thing apart.

Congress really needs to investigate this. And begin impeachment hearings.
