11. BIGGEST BUSH LIE TOLD TONIGHT: 20K ADDITIONAL TROOPS IS ENOUGH
To keep the cleared areas clear. NO IT WON'T. According to General Shinsheki, pre-invasion in 2003, it will take SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND TROOPS TO HOLD CLEARED POSITIONS.

50. Reading between the lines here..
"We can begin by working together to increase the size of the active Army and Marine Corps, so that America has the Armed Forces we need for the 21st century. We also need to examine ways to mobilize talented American civilians to deploy overseas - where they can help build democratic institutions in communities and nations recovering from war and tyranny." -Is he talking about a selective skills draft here??

72. This is basically the same crap he's said since the start of the war.
None of this was true before and their predictions fell flat, just like these will. Where the hell is he getting these troops? What about Al Qaeda in Afghanistan? Doesn't he realize they are still there right along with the Taliban? I'm just livid about this whole thing.
