(If) The Surge Worked

Since the surge was a success, it is time for a victory march. Bring the troops home. Pass out the medals. Bury the coffins. Plan the memorials. If we have won, if the plan worked, make the claim and board the plane. Kiss the whores goodbye. Jump a jet. Kiss your wife at the ramp. Bring them home. Let the victorious flowers bloom in the blood meal of the Iraqi sand. Bring them home in a victory surge. (If) the surge worked.
