the surge is working perfectly

[spanone]

the surge is doing exactly what it was intended to do. to allow bu$h* and company to extend the conversation about the war until they are long gone.

when the surge was implemented the thugs were saying they would know in months if it was working. after months it was 'way to early to tell, it's just begun'.

well here we are well over a year after the surge and petraeus has no clue when the troops may come home......mission accomplished

[spanone]

3. Moving The Goalposts, Too...

Yesterday I heard both Crocker and Petreus admit that only 4 of boooshie's benchmarks have been met, but today the GOOP spinners have somehow found 8 more...saying "12 of 18"...yet not citing any.

Petreus' job is to keep the dirty money flowing and take the ugly invasion off the front pages. Create a fantasy world that Gramps can run on and kick the can as far down the road as he can. And, as expected, the corporate media is buying it and selling it like Viagra.

4. We've turned so many corners that we keep on ending right back in the same place

over and over and over again.

5. Feels like this campaign.

Thank goodness we have a convention, or it would never end either.

8. and he wants 45 more days after all surge troops leave to evaluate

it is just a stall game
they will never admit any blame or take any responsibility
