We needed troops from the beginning. Stop drinking the cool-aid for a sec and notice that we can't stabilize some parts of that country because of the lack of troops.

I agree with McCain on this issue.

Please, please, please urge McCain and Hagel to run for president in 2008.

I cannot wait to see their massive egos flattened when they get their asses kicked in the primaries.

Well the President has another viewpoint, Blakep. He thinks the Iraqis ought to do it. And everything is on track and on plan.

U.S. Sen. John McCain (news, bio, voting record) said Monday that he has "no confidence" in Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, citing Rumsfeld's handling of the war in Iraq (news - web sites) and the failure to send more troops.

I have not confidence in Sen. John McCain. He is often allied with Democrats who tried to limit the U.S Forces to be armed with spitballs. He cannot be trusted with the security of this nation. He should be roundly defeated in any run for President.

Where was this McCain bigmouth during the Clinton military disasters? Never remember hearing a peep out of him.

Well, I imagine that Donald Rumsfield lacks confidence in John McCain - so it's mutual. McCain is getting pretty disgusting. He thinks because he spent 5 years in prison, it gives him some kind of insight into everything. I think not.

Gee you accuse me of drinking the Kool-aid? I supose you agree with McCain on global warming too?

He's a publicity hound catering to his base, the MSM. BTW I agree with the Generals in charge on the troops issue, do you really think they're not trying to win? By my account Iraq has been a success, not a quagmire. It's just that you can't come to that conclusion by listening to the MSM.

Since U.S. troops are an irritant in the Sunni triangle do you really think sending a lot more would make things better? I don't. The Iraqis will have to fight for their future, that's what we're trying to do.
