Gen. Patraeus is a savvy guy but way late to this party. I don’t see how anyone can give credit to anyone in the WH for bringing new ideas in at this late date.
Since President Bush went completely against the tide which was pull troops out at the time, he deserves a large share of the credit.
Some people get so caught up in their hatred of him they refuse to give him credit for anything. In this case he was told to pull troops out, not put more in and how many called it a failed strategy??
Pray for W and Our Troops
