Bush Surprise Visit to Iraq

(Al-Asad Air Base, Anbar Province, Iraq) President Bush secretly flew 11 hours from Washington to make a surprise visit to Iraq, presumably landing only a short while ago. Defense Secretary Gates also arrived for a visit by a separate airplane.

Apparently, nobody in the media was tipped off to the trip. Pundits peg the trip as a show of support for the Iraqi government and a morale booster for the troops.
