LET'S GO ORANJE: Vice President Joe Biden says he hopes the Netherlands will
finally win the world title.

Biden arrived in the Baghdad on Saturday to visit U.S. troops during the
Fourth of July weekend and to push for a resolution to the political
deadlock that has left Iraq without a new government since March 7
elections.

After touching down at a Baghdad airport, Biden told reporters "we hope the
Netherlands wins the World Cup."

Biden made the comment before heading into meetings with chief U.S.
diplomat, top American military commander and the UN envoy to Iraq, Ad
Melkert, who is Dutch.

The Netherlands plays Uruguay next week in one semifinal. Germany plays
Spain in the other, while the Americans were eliminated by Ghana.
