US Troops Now Under Iraqi Authority

A very strange deal, from the perspective of the mighty US military.

A couple of thoughts:
1) why aren't conservatives screaming bloody murder about this? If a Democratic president had done this, there's no doubt they would accuse them of treason-- and the funny thing is that they would have a case.
2) this seems like a time-bomb set for the Obama administration. I can well see some catastrophe taking place with US forces, and the Obama administration getting the blame.
3) the only good thing is that hopefully this will hasten the US departure-- since why would they want to stay under these circumstances?
