As a result, Anbar has been transformed and reclaimed by the Iraqi people.
This achievement in Anbar province is a credit to the courage of our troops and the many brave Iraqis who fought alongside our forces agains...
Today, Anbar is no longer lost to Al Qaida; it is Al Qaida that lost Anbar.
I will not be traveling to Louisiana tomorrow because I do not want my visit to impede in any way the response of our emergency personnel.
