IRAQ: not a surge

[radfringe]

In January we were told it would take 3 months, now it's pushed to September, and there are other reports out there prepping us for a 10 year occupation

this is not a surge - it's Operation DRAG and DUMP

drag it out until jan '09 and dump it on someone else

1. Sad but so true

and then in 2009, The Repugs will blame the Dem President on not getting us out of Iraq, and spending all that money over there.

2. The Bush administration keeps making excuse after excuse to give contractors more money

As long as the war keeps going, defense contractors are on the gravy train.
They keep raking in the taxpayer dollars thanks to their good buddy BUSH.
And it is all a complete waste. The Iraqis don't want us there, we don't want to be there, but the supply line just keep pumping men and machines into the war.
We need to withdraw our troops and seek a diplomatic solution.
