This could put the libs in a bind. Are they going to say the troops are the problem or not having enough troops are the problem?
To: Flavius

One thing I have always noted, by reading, military commanders never feel they have enough troops.

Is it? I don't know. My comment is merely based upon what I have read over the years.

It will confuse them... They can't say "Send more troops" when they have already said "Controlled Withdrawl within 6 months".
To: Flavius
We should pull out of Iraq because our troops are a target but we don't have enough troops in Iraq.
What am I missing here?

What in the He## is the US Senate doing leaping over the chain of command. They are not even in the Chain of Command.
Levin and Dayton I consider Traitors and they have helped the terrorist kill Americans in Iraq.
Another try by the anti-American Al-Qaeda members of the US Senate to defeat the United States.

"It will confuse them... They can't say "Send more troops" when they have already said "Controlled Withdrawl within 6 months"."
Here's how you spin it if you're a Dem...
"We will begin an immediate withdrawl as soon as we possibly can... not one minute later."
Of course, no one anywhere plans to stay in Iraq if there is a viable option to leave, but hey, it sounds great....

I don't think I've ever heard of any military officer saying that he had enough of anything. I don't think the word "enough" is in the military lexicon.

Holy Crap! You want to hear the truth about Iraq? Ask between the ranks of LtCol and Capt, E5 - E8.
You all hear from the mouths of the Bn Commanders who are leading this fight and because it doesn't agree with what some ahole politician has been saying you get your panties in a bind. These are the ones leading the fight, not hanging around on some base eating effin pizza.
Guess what? They want to win!!!
Do you? You all sound more intrested in propping up some political party.

One thing I have always noted, by reading, military commanders never feel they have enough troops. McClellan on the Peninsula had over 120,000 troops Magruder had about 13,000. McClellan sat down a whined for more troops.
