Bush urges Congress to wait for Iraq report

WASHINGTON (Reuters) ..............

"The stakes in Iraq are too high and the consequences too grave for our security here at home to allow politics to harm the mission of our men and women in uniform," Bush said in a statement after visiting military officials at the Pentagon...................

"This status report comes less than three months since our new strategy became fully operational and will assess what is going well, what can be improved, and what adjustments might be made in the coming months," Bush said.

Some Democrats have already called for the ouster of Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki and are likely to renew calls to withdraw American troops because of reports that show slow political progress.

"The president's surge has failed and there is no end in sight for the war in Iraq. This is what I learned on my summer visit to that ravaged country," Rep. Jan Schakowsky of Illinois said in the weekly Democratic radio address to air on Saturday.

1. As horrible as Bush is, it is far worse that America tolerates Bush

remaining in office

I often wonder how many idiots tell themselves it's a sign of how healthy our system of government is that such a piece of shit is tolerated....

Frankly, that Bush remains in office is proof positive of just how sick America is

Stupid hypocritical fuck.

7. Why is Bush telling Congress to wait when he already know what he's going to do?

We might even see a "Surge II" from the Bush Admin.
