Gen Petraeus to start 3-week media blitz
Just heard that Petraeus has decided that he needs to boost the public's confidence in keeping the Afghanistan war going (on and on and on), so will start a 3-week media blitz later this week.

Guess the CIA's estimate of 50-100 Taliban against 75,000-125,000 US/NATO troops is starting to make Americans question whether the lives and money are worth continuing.

But come on...after nine long years, do we really need a media blitz to sell the benefits?
