Let the Iraq war begin continue!

(I attempted to post this last night, but Blogger didn't want to play along.)
New York Times:

In a well-publicized show of force, U.S. and Iraqi forces swept into the countryside north of the capital in 50 helicopters Thursday looking for insurgents in what the American military called its "largest air assault" in nearly three years.

There was no bombing or firing from the air in the offensive northeast of Samarra, a town 60 miles north of Baghdad, the U.S. military said. All 50 aircraft were helicopters -- Black Hawks, Apaches and Chinooks -- used to ferry in and provide cover for the 1,450 Iraqi and U.S. troops.

The military said the assault -- Operation Swarmer -- aimed to clear "a suspected insurgent operating area" and would continue over several days.

You know my first thought when I saw this hit the news today?

In a few months, George is going to done a flight suit and land on another carrier to announce "Mission Accomplished" once again.
