Coalition of the "Let's Just Get the Hell Outta Here"

Bulgaria is the latest to say enough is enough. And you've gotta shake your head at this from Gen. Richard Myers:

Myers said the number of attacks against U.S. forces across Iraq has fallen to between 40 and 50 a day, and about half of those cause no injuries or property damage. The number of daily attacks is about at the level of one year ago, he said -- far fewer than in the weeks prior to the Jan. 30 elections.

Only 40-50 a day--and only 20 to 30 cause injuries or property damage--wow, that's GREAT news!

Speaking of lunatic pronouncements, the dingbat in chief had his own Wednesday:

Two years after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, the coalition of countries that provided troops has fallen from 38 nations to 24, and the United States continues to shoulder the bulk of the outside responsibility and suffer most of the non-Iraqi casualties. Bush said allies want to get out as soon as Iraq can defend itself.

Asked whether the coalition was crumbling, Bush said, "No, quite to the contrary..."
