New SecDef Robert Gates Signed Onto The Iraq Study Group's Report. It was unanimous.
Edited on Mon Dec-18-06 03:08 PM by spanone
Mr. Robert Gates was a member of the Iraq Study Group. He agreed with their findings.


Why doesn't Mr. Gates sit Mr. Bush* down and read him the book?

7. Have you read the report?
They could have titled it "Iraq for Dummies."

4. He claims that it was so important, that he actually read it...
which means, he thinks it's a crock of shit and he threw it in the round file.

5. I don't believe him one bit. You can bet he got the Cliffs Notes version at best.
Redacted of any 4 syllable words.

8. Are there any recommendations the SecDef can enact unilaterally?
This would be the perfect opportunity to make his mark.
