39. Dimwit Bush should have listened to McCain calling for

Edited on Sat Jan-13-07 11:09 PM by fuzzyball

more troops right from the beginning and the war would
have been over 2 years ago. Now the insurgents are much
more organized and it will take 200,000 more troops not 20,000.

We had 500,000 troops in Gulf war #1, and idiots Rumsfeld and
Bush tried to do #2 war with 135,000 troops.

The ONLY option now is to add the troops to clean out Baghdad,
and set a firm time table for Iraqi military to take over. Gen.
Abizaid and others are correct in that so long as our soldiers
are doing the dirty work, why would the Iraqi's get off their duff.
