Terrific! Thanks to the Leftists at Think Progress for pointing this out. White House press secretary Dana Perino today told the gaggle in DC that the conditions are such now that we are able to celebrate the victory that we've had so far. Of course, Perino also added that this would not ...

In 2006, when the Democrats recaptured the House
and Senate, there wasn't any doubt about the antiwar
mandate. That election was widely seen as a referendum on the Iraq War, and the new Democratic majority felt empowered by it. In 2008, though, it ...

Perino: Conditions in Iraq now amount to victory
Hot Air » Top Picks —
... Progress in Iraq that Almost No One Thought Possible, Least of All Our Modern-Day Lincoln Day instead? Speaking of Lincoln, the relentlessly anti-war McClatchy is dumping all over the new security pact but read this WaPo story from yesterday to see how much easier it makes things for The One. He gets his timetable after all — with Bush’s name on the dotted line and, just maybe, Bush’s defense secretary to see it through. Click the image to watch. [image]
White House: Victory in Iraq no Thanks to Democrats

Via Gateway Pundit: White House: QUESTION: Yes, sorry, Dana, back to the Iraq agreement again that the Hill is being briefed on. Can you remind us again why this agreement is not the timetable that the President fought so hard against, and also how this does not attempt to tie President-elect Obama’s hands in any way? MS. PERINO: You remember back in the debate when we were talking about arbitrary dates for withdrawal, that was when there were some members of Congress just suggesting that we get our troops out of Iraq, win or lose, without any sort of planning or ...

PoliGazette —
... Although recent history has taught us not to use the word “victory” too easily, Perino’s point is clear: the surge and other changes in strategy have calmed Iraq and brought peace to this once troubled country. There are still problems, there are still extremists and terrorists, but overall, the picture is looking increasingly bright.

"The Audacity of Victory"
Ace of Spades HQ —
... Dana Perino says we should "celebrate the victory we've had so far." It may be time to declare officially what everyone seems to know but is skittish about saying. (Of course, we'll have to check with the brain trust at NBCNews first, to find out if the "Civil War" they notoriously declared in 2006 is still raging. Funny, they're rather tardy about un-declaring that.)
