You’re kidding, right? This is the same ridiculous argument that Hillary Clinton offers. All of a sudden, we leave Iraq and the war on terror is magically over. Foolishness, although I do agree that this particular argument sounds more like a problem w/ the role of the Secretary of Defense.
Let’s kill two birds w/ one stone and return to calling our ‘Defense Dept.’ the War Dept. This will also anger Dems and the media, thus providing some entertainment value.
I believe that if there is not a substantial increase in good news out of Iraq by November 2008, there will likely be a democrat in the White House by January 2009.
