slinking in in the dead of night

juan cole has an amazing rant about how differently bush's dream of visiting iraq was from yesterday's cowardly trip to baghdad:

the President had to sneak in and out of Iraq for a quick and dirty photo op, clearly in fear of his life if the news of his visit had leaked. He did not even get time to eat a meal with the troops. He was there for two hours. He did not dare meet with ordinary Iraqis, with the people he had conquered (liberated).
