The White House probably wishes it could take a mulligan, after widely distributing a Reuters story in which the Iraqi president agrees with Barack Obama on the timetable for U.S. troop withdrawals.
The flurry of attention from the boo-boo came as Republic John McCain had to respond to the Iraqi presidents comments without appearing to back down from previous statements about a possible lengthy U.S. military presence in Iraq.
Just a blip in the blogosphere, but always interesting to see when someone inadvertently appears to be endorsing a news story by sharing it with others.
