Gen. Eaton: If Bush won’t listen, Congress must.

VoteVets has released its latest ad featuring 33-year U.S. Army veteran Gen. Paul Eaton, who most recently served as Commanding General in charge of reestablishing Iraqi Security Forces from 2003-2004. From the new ad:

EATON: President Bush says he listens to his military commanders. Well, Mr. President, I was one of those commanders, and you weren’t listening when we warned you of the dangers we’d face invading Iraq. Now our military is overcommitted, and America is less secure. Mr. President, you’re being told we need serious diplomacy, not escalation. And you’re still not listening. If the President won’t listen, Congress must.

1. Well,

I'll bet chimpco never figured he'd have ex-military,... Generals, no less, speaking out this strongly against his Iraq adventure, basically telling the American people that bush's whole Iraq strategy was flawed and doomed to failure right from the start. Or at least they never figured it would be heard by very many people. All I can say is "Viva la Internet"!

2. Why does Gen. Eaton want the terrorists to win?????

:sarcasm:

How long do you have to fail before you're a failure, Bush?

And a question for lurking Freepers:

What will the terrorist win, exactly? A broken, battered country? Sectarian violence? An Iraqi civil war?

The will not have won a 'safe haven', that's for sure.
