4. Shades of LBJ in that other little venture.
Instead of "escalation" they're calling this a "temporary surge".

The results will be the same.

6. I stand by my much-flamed opinion
An escalation is worse than getting out, but better than keeping the current level of troops.

16. Which is to say
an aspirin is better than nothing if you have a hemorrhoid. But that doesn't make an aspirin a good idea. Better to deal with the problem directly. An aspirin only makes the hemorrhoid slightly more bearable as it drags on and on.

20. Taking to the streets won't end the war.
None of the rallies has ended the invasion and occupation as yet since 2003.

None.

Republicans mainly understand and react to loss of money. Boycott their contributors and demand they get the GOP to end the war.
