- Lots of blogs by people who are there.
- Bremer's reports.
- Poll results (although I still wonder about methodology).
- Economic data concerning increased productivity, employment, standards of living.
- Writings decrying our lack of success, but without facts provided to support such claims.
- Writings celebrating our success to date, with supporting facts and sources provided.
- Blogs by Iraqis.
- The Saudi Vitriolic Press, who can no longer point to anything concrete in their rantings about our presence in Iraq except to say that America will now finally have to accept the overall superiority of the S.A. system, and that they will help us in Iraq, but only after we make a great effort to apologize to them for our rudeness and impertinence.
- Anything by Sean Penn. Like the French Press, I think of him as a counter-barometer.
