And the cover of their paper is soooo funny and so true! If you haven’t seen it, go check it out. Here’s a little excerpt:

The Iraq Study Group report delivered to President Bush yesterday contains 79 separate recommendations – but not one that explains how American forces can defeat the terrorist insurgents, only ways to bring the troops home.

Critics said the study was foolish to suggest pressuring the Iraqi government to do more when it’s not yet capable.

“Simply calling for a weak and divided Iraqi government to act in the face of all the forces that are tearing it apart is almost feckless,” said Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

“It comes far too close to having the U.S. threaten to take its ball and go home if the Iraqis do not play the game our way.”

Yesterday morning, a stoic Bush listened to the panel’s report at a White House meeting with all 10 commission members and said later he would take the recommendations “seriously.”

“We applaud your work. We take it very seriously and we’ll act on it in a timely fashion,” Bush told the panel at a meeting in the White House Cabinet Room.

But aides were quick to point out that the president is also waiting for findings of special study groups at the Pentagon, the National Security Council and the State Department before making final decisions about any midcourse correction on Iraq.

Jonah Goldberg’s not saying it but he’s got to be loving the fact that his phrase has made it onto the New York Post (without the Cheese Eating part of course) in reference to the newest set of Surrender Monkeys.
