Iraq - US turning over Anbar Province to Iraqis

From Gateway Pundit

This makes 11 of 18 Iraqi Provinces now under Iraqi governmental control.
--One in four Americans lost in Iraq were killed in Anbar Province.

Comment: Of course major media won't be covering this story, it would play into John Mccain's hands and show that he was right about the surge and about finishing the job in Iraq.  At this point I think even Obama knows that we need to finish the job, but he's keeping his mouth shut so he doesn't make MoveON.org mad
