1. ..by the time they get back home, the total number will be about 28,500....
or even less, depending on how the 'surge' is going.

4. I don't think that will happen
Even the capital classes have had enough of him. GOP Congressional candidates in competitive districts will barely mention him if it all. He's a vote loser. Another GOP President, or a moderate Democrat President will keep the capital classes happy and the economy ticking over.

I am not sure Bush has such loyalty in the military that they would fire on Congress. Such a power grab would cause the Dollar to plummet against all currencies sending the economy in a tail-spin

5. Logic is not their strong suit
just power.

They have never, NEVER thought anything through to its LOGICAL conclusion before, so why would they start now?
