Kofi Annan writes a letter to those who mught be depressed by yesterday's USAToday poll which showed "satisfaction with the way things are going in the war on terrorism is at a new low: 52%, down from 75% in September 2002." You know they really mean "War in Iraq".

There's Progress in Iraq

Today I am traveling to Brussels to join representatives of more than 80 governments and institutions in sending a loud and clear message of support for the political transition in Iraq....

In a media-hungry age, visibility is often regarded as proof of success. But this does not necessarily hold true in Iraq. Even when, as with last week's agreement, the results of our efforts are easily seen by all, the efforts themselves must be undertaken quietly and away from the cameras.

If we need Kofi Annan to cheer us up on Iraq, President Bush is obviously not doing his job.
