The public seems to be evenly divided about how to withdraw from Iraq:
A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds the country split down the middle between those backing Sen. Barack Obama’s 16o-month timeline for withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq and those agreeing with Sen. John McCain’s position that events, not timetables, should dictate when forces come home.
Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, will deliver what his campaign is billing as a “major address” on Iraq today in Washington, part of an effort to convince voters that he could serve effectively as commander in chief. The public is also evenly divided on that question, with 48 percent saying he would be an effective leader of the military and 48 percent saying he would not.

The country is “split.” Maybe we could benefit from an artistic representation of this divisive trend, from Australia. Here is a compelling performance of the Banana Split Show.
Why can’t we all just be friends?
Aussies came up with this dance routine. This confirms my belief that Australia may be the last best hope for the preservation of black American culture.
This needs a pity comment.
I’m sure I could dance like that. If I really wanted to.
It deserves two pity comments.
Cute dance.
Was a gymnast.
Love to dance.
Time for ice cream.
Sorry, no banana.
