Memo to Glenn Reynolds and Matt Sanchez.

Wrong.

MATT SANCHEZ WRITES FROM IRAQ: "There should be no doubt, the so-called surge is working, but, in September, I am afraid General Petraeus will downplay the positive effect for fear of appearing too partisan."

For the last time: the surge only can be considered "working" if the security successes lead to actual political progress. Without the latter, the former doesn't matter. At all. It's just not clear why these people don't have a basic understanding of the policy they purport to know so much about.

And I love the "Petraeus really knows the truth but he'll lie so people don't think he's a Republican" take.

What a piece of work.
