Is the surge on for sure? I thought this was still under consideration. But, I'll make three points.
One: If we'd let our guys kill the enemy easier and faster, without reading them Miranda Rights, it might be done quicker.
Two: More US troops in Iraq means more targets for the enemy.
Three: Any "surge" would be more effective if the Iraqi troops did it with our support.
Four: (Yeah, I know I said three) Whatever we do the media has to be compromised before we do it and the Democrats have to be silenced somehow. The anti-war crowd is going to go nuts if this happens.
You would have been very proud of Joe Lieberman the other day.
When he and McCain were giving their speeches re: Iraq, it was Joe that pointed out that "we musn't separate the war in Iraq from the wider war on terror"...
Which is EXACTLY what the dems want to do...because to do otherwise makes them in favor of letting the terrorists run the world, but they can still blame Pres. Bush for HIS nefarious war.
