Back to Normal

Bush: Iraq is returning to normal

President Bush, saying that "normalcy is returning back to Iraq," argued Thursday that last year's U.S. troop "surge" has improved Iraq's security to the point where political and economic progress are blossoming as well.

He is correct, Iraq is returning to the type of 'normalcy' that Bush's occupation started - more death, destruction, and pure chaos.
