“I met with every divisional commander, General Casey, the Corps commander, General Dempsey. We all talked together. And I said, in your professional opinion, if we were to bring in more American troops now, does it add considerably to our ability to achieve success in Iraq? And they all said no." -- That's General John Abizaid, the top commander in Iraq, quoted in a long-awaited letter the Democratic leaders of Congress just sent over to GWB, saying, in short, SNAP OUT OF IT. No "surge," no "stay the course," just wrap it up: "It is time to bring the war to a close." Say it, sister! As some of the commenters note (and there's a Nobel winner in there!), the Prez is still listening to his chorus of Iagos if he thinks more troops could actually help...not that Vice Profiteer Cheney cares about another 3,000 or 30,000 dead so long as his retirement account continues to fatten. Is it possible to impeach the VP? Hmmmm....
