Encouraging news from Maliki, details to come, and the details will be everything:

"There is an agreement actually reached, reached between the two parties on a fixed date which is the end of 2011 to end any foreign presence on Iraqi soil," Maliki said in a speech to tribal leaders in the Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone.

"Any foreign presence"? It seems as if Bush and McCain have signed "surrender," as they have so often described it.  Good for them.
