The Surge is Done!

We've successfully surged the hell out of Iraq, and now we just have to sit back and watch the freedom roll in.

We remember the beginning of the SURGE like it was just last February -- children across these United States decked out in their SURGE shirts, asking their parents to buy them the official SURGE tie-in video game for their "Play Stations" and "Game Boys", asking with adorable naiveté why their fathers were going away for such a long time -- and now that it's finished, we've got nothing to do but set up our deck chairs to watch the celebratory SURGE parades traveling down the Main Streets of America.

All 28,500 additional troops are now in Iraq, holding it down and keeping shit real. Yes, finally, the surge is complete.

"The strategic movement of forces into the theater is complete, and the surge is just starting," said U.S. military spokesman Lt. Col. Christopher Garver. "

Wait, what? It's just startingnow? Fuck that, we've been bored with it for months already!
