In an editorial today denouncing calls for withdrawal from Iraq, the Wall Street Journal passes along a comforting tale for war supporters:

We are told that among the papers discovered along with Saddam two years ago was one saying that the Baathists-turned-terrorists will know they are winning when a candidate for President of the United States calls for withdrawal from Iraq. Saddam and Zarqawi know the real lessons of Vietnam, even if too many Members of Congress do not.

How convenient that such a document turned up! Of course, no proof is provided that it even exists. Any guesses as to who the Journal’s source was? John Bolton? Karl Rove, perhaps?
