Good News From Iraq (Quick, somebody call Chuck Hagel!)
Over at NewsMax.com, they have coverage of CENTCOM's reply to Chuck Hagel's stupid remarks. Here are a few items:
Before Senator Hagel does anymore damage to the war effort, we'd urged him to review the CENTCOM release for the week of August 22.
Here's a few highlights:
• More reconstruction projects in Sadr City started this week, including the $13 million electrical distribution project for sectors one through eight. When complete, an estimated 128,000 people will have a reliable source of electricity. The project includes installation of power lines, 3,040 power poles, 80 transformers, 2,400 street lights, and power connections to individual homes, complete with meters.
• Construction started on the $3.8 million Al Rayash Electricity Substation project in Al Daur District of Salah Ad Din Province, located between Tikrit and Bayji. The project, which is expected to be completed in early December, will provide reliable service to 50,000 Iraqi homes and small businesses. An electric distribution and street lighting project in Daquq was completed on Aug. 17, providing new overhead distribution lines and street lighting in the community.
Not bad for a bunch of soldiers who can't seem to do anything right, from the Left's (and unfortunately, some Republicans') point of view. There's more:
• Approximately two million people will benefit from the Baghdad trunk sewer line, which was completed this week. Workers cleaned and repaired the Baghdad trunk sewer line and its associated manholes and pumping stations. The $17.48 million project restored principal sewage collection elements in the Adhamiya, Sadr City and 9-Nissan districts of Baghdad, and will provide for the intended sewer flows to the Rustamiya wastewater treatment plant.
• More than 600 children will return to renovated or rebuilt schools in Maysan Province when school starts this fall. This week, renovation on the Al-Eethnar Mud School was completed, and the Al Eethar Mud School was replaced at a cost of $87,000, benefiting 500 students who attend classes there.
• Children in Dobak Tappak village of Al Tamim Province received much-needed school supplies, clothing and toys from the Nahrain Foundation, a non-governmental organization that focuses on providing proper nutrition, decent clothing and medical supplies to Iraqi women and children. The foundation received its supplies as part of a joint effort between American donations and a Coalition forces-run program known as "Operation Provide School Supplies,” which accepts donations from private citizens and corporations in the U.S.
There are many more listed, check it out. I am SO SICK of jerks on the Left, and even bigger jerks on the Right because they should know better, running down our soldiers and our mission over there. Cindy Sheehan and her merry band of idiots are just a sideshow, a freak show. When our U.S. Senators and Congressmen go on record against our military and our mission, it's serious and should be dealt with. Bush needs to box Hagel's ears, kick his butt, and send him to Iceland to check out global warming or something.
