"That this was not known to our fancy boy neocons when calling for this war is less than heartening."

They know that his military uses Russian tactics. Hard to believe they wouldn't know this.

To be fair- I suspect Bush did have a clue. He was warning that it wasn't going to be a cakewalk before this started. I just think the Pentagon should have been listened too and we bulked up to 4 to 5 hundred thousand troops. And I am not sure how much influence these neocon guys have over Bush- I hope not much.
