BAGHDAD, Iraq - President Bush assured Iraqis in a surprise visit to Baghdad on Tuesday that the United States stands with them and their new government. "It's in our interest that Iraq succeed," he said, seated alongside newly named Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

The dramatic trip came as Bush sought to bolster support for Iraq's fledgling government and U.S. war policy at home.

"I've come to not only look you in the eye. I've also come to tell you that when America gives its word, it keeps its word," Bush told al-Maliki.

The president also was to visit U.S. troops as part of what aides said was to be a visit of just over five hours to the war-scarred country.

Like him or not you have to admit that it took balls to go over to Bagdad. He's got to be on the top of every insurgent/al-quada list the same way that Osama Bin Cavin is on our list.:thumbsup:
