Randi Rhodes right now:
Milike says no more troops, Commanders on the ground in Iraq say no more troops (both say it will infame the population even more).

Saudi Arabia wants chaos in Iraq---prevents oil from going out. Chaos also gives employment to the angry young males in SA (they go to Iraq).

David Gergen says it seems that the WH does not know what to do. WH is disarray.

1. Plus the Saudis

can charge more for their oil, when there is chaos in Iraq.

This is exactly what BushCo wanted.

3. well, i think they realize (not admit it) that they got more than they

bargained for.

2. Bush was shown the way out, and the drunken sod is choosing another exit:

Yeah, like that worked the LAST time!:eyes:

[rodeodance]

4. he sure is giving hints that he wants one more last push (had that last

summer---recall)

[rurallib]

5. We're fucked no matter what we do

All options have bad consequences. Probably the least bad consequences are with the immediate withdrawal choice, which of course we will never do.

6. Saudi scare tactic...

for America to stay the course ordered by Bushie, it's sooo Rovian blackmail...no more troops then we'll fund the Sunnis..and screw you...call them on their bluff...everyone says no more troops therefore DO NOT SEND ANYMORE TROOPS...
