It's kind of buried in the story, but the 3 that have been satisfied are:
1) Pick a national mascot (Buteo rufinus, aka the Long-legged Buzzard),
2) Find a dependable caterer for the annual Ramadan party (Todai),
and 3) Get the front steps power-washed (dried blood removal)

And of course shrub will spin this in his inimicable style: "The good news is, the Iraqi government is making demonstra - demons- good progress, having achieved several benchmarks since the beginning of the surge. I'm also happy to report that chocolate rations have increased to 20 grams per person."

COL. of TRUTH When I was in high school (during the Mesozoic era) to have worn baggy pants half-way down your ass would have prompted a singular reaction: 'pants' them. Isn't that the message? "My pants are already half off, pull them down the rest of the way." Subliminal sexual message here? Like people with facial tattoos who resemble the hockey-masked Dr. Lechter. It's a free country - feel free to move about it looking ugly and stupid (at least according to those who're already self-endowed with taste).
