From the AP via Yahoo! News:
President Bush, facing political pressure for troop cutbacks, said Tuesday he would make a fresh assessment about Iraq's needs for U.S. military help now that a new government has taken office in Baghdad.
Bush also said Americans should not judge what's happening in Iraq solely on the basis of the unrelenting violence. "It is a difficult task to stop suicide bombers," Bush said at a news conference.

"We haven't gotten to the point yet where the new government is sitting down with our commanders to come up with a joint way forward," the president said. "However, having said that, this is a new chapter in our relationship. In other words, we're now able to take a new assessment about the needs necessary for the Iraqis."
[...]
"This is a new, permanent government that will chart a new path for Iraq," said White House counselor Dan Bartlett. "Obviously, we will play an instrumental role in security operations, but as their capability grows and they centralize authority of Iraqi forces, our role will change."

SEE! SEE! "Our role will change," now they're preparing us for it! Geez this is exactly what I've been talking about, its like this conference or whatever it is was conducted just for me. "We haven't gotten to the point yet where the new government is sitting down with our commanders to come up with a joint way forward [But they sure as hell will! Woo hoo we got us a Muslim state at our finger tips hee-yuck!],". I like that way of putting it, "joint way forward," more like, "whatever we want them to do,". Do we need anything more to see why we're there?
