3. Maybe and maybe not. There are three very strong options for *.
  1. Take the advice being showered upon him to start a draw down in 6 to 8 months. Of course, if he does so, he will act as if it was his idea and he'll declare complete victory.

  2. Give the appearance of taking the advice with a strong speech. He will then continue with what he's doing. For *, this is situation normal: "tell them what they want to hear, and do what I want to do."

  3. Give a "fuck you very much" speech, declare how leadership is hard, and stay the course.
No guarantees either way.

7. It's becoming quite clear that this and any future wars
Edited on Sun Aug-26-07 10:00 AM by jimshoes
started by the bush regime is nothing more than a money stealing operation. When the money is getting too hard or too deadly to steal in one war, (Iraq) then move on to greener (as in the color of money) pastures. (Iran) The same bullshit reasons will be used to gin up support for this new war, because that's what the PR firm they've hired to sell this piece of shit tells us, and it will be the most important thing the US does this next few months or years or it gets too hard to steal our money like Iraq has. And don't object cuz you'll be a defeatist :eyes: and just shut up and go shopping. Oh and if you haven't read the Rolling Stone article "The great Iraq Swindle" you must do so for your own edification and as background info.

5. Different direction - Iran, of course. Obfuscation and lying will reign.
The pimps will all be out and there won't be enough shows for them to pimp on.

8. Because We're Moving Into An Election Year..........
and the Repugs think that if they can take credit for pulling troops out of Iraq it will give them some semblance of a chance to even think of winning in '08.
