U.S. Troop Levels Likely to Stay Level in IraqPosted on Mar 24, 2008
Americans serving in Iraq will have to wait until the next president takes office before they can expect any substantial changes in troop numbers, if Bush follows the latest recommended plan from Gen. David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker.

Why is it a lie… because we haven’t started on the down slope of the parabola? The stated intention is to reduce troops and I see no reason why this wouldn’t be the intention.

Surge = A wave in the sea of Bush’s bullshit.
He’s riding the wave.

U.S. Troop Levels Likely to Stay Level in Iraq -
Until they completely burn out our military that is.
The fantasy of Iraq being a “secure nation” while in reality destroying our own could only be thought of as progress in the District of Corruption.
In Washington the optimist views the toilet half full of sh*t, the pessimist half empty. You can attach the D’s & R’s wherever you like.

the newly anointed leader of the free world? He said he would get the troops out a.s.a.p. I guess he was exaggerating a little.

Two little letters -Soooo Many Indictments.
Report this‘For the People By the People” a Free ‘Democracy’, “WE THE PEOPLE” which phrase does Dick Not comprehend???? 2/3 majority???
Anyone who claims to be a Public Servant should be seizing this moment (and Cheney). We ahve all th eEvidence We need- Cough up the Footage & Quotes Media! At Least Our Principles still have some Voice on PBS, Frontline “Bush’s War” (shouldn’t give credit to a stooge - just charges of Complicity).
WE do not need to Bear Arms to fight this Revolution, just the Laws we were Founding On.
Frankly th eArmed Services would serve US better if they Protected and Defended US from our Domestic Enemies First!

^ enlightened posters here; I know yours is a rhetorical question....yes? Its the height of irony that the MSM is not covering the news, but its the very thing people seek for information and the alternative news media (Democracy Now; one example), which actually tells us the facts, is unknown to the majority of American citizens. What does this say about us?
