Remember Iraq?

Hey, look -- it's good news from Iraq. Whoops, here's more. President Bush held a news conference with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani today, and we barely hear about it.

No, things aren't over in Iraq. But they are getting better. And man, does the press avoid that story like the plague. As an Instapundit e-mailer notes, "'Iraq must be a smashing success - and it's obviously driving the press absolutely crazy - when Bush can hold a presser with Talabani and field only Louisiana disaster relief questions.'"
