I pointed out a while ago that the persons citing Iraqis returning to Iraq as somehow a sign that Bush had done something right was, well, a pile of Bushie crap.

Here’s a little more information which pretty much supports my position:

The Iraqis continue to flee toward Syria, and the number of those who cross the border is much greater than that of those returning home. The motives of those who decide to come back, moreover, are not connected to an improvement in security, but mostly because of the expiration of residency permits and economic difficulties. These are the findings of the latest report from the UN high commissioner for refugees (UNHCR) on the numbers on Iraqi emigration into Syria. The result of the study clearly contradicts the scene depicted by the Baghdad government, according to which a drop in the number of attacks and the level of insecurity is bringing thousands of refugees back home each month.

Ya know, you can wrap the doggy poop up in a box, put fancy paper and a bow on it, but, when it’s unwrapped, it’s still doggy poop.

(Afterthought: Now that Empty Suit is out of the race and his sons are no longer serving America by trying to convince the voters that well-tailored material equals presidential material, maybe they can join my son in serving in the uniform of the United States Army.)
