We don't have to be in country to deter the north, they know they are gone if they nuke the south whether we are garrisoned there or not.

Yet we had just as many troops in Iraq in 2005 as we did after the surge. We hadn't bought off the sunnis as of yet and the neighborhoods hadn't been cleansed, Otherwise the surge would never had "worked". Still waiting for that reconciliation thing to happen which the surge was suppose to be all about.

Any escalation would have been met with outrage from those who support obama's. On the other hand the old senile one would probably have started bomb bomb bomb....bombing Iran by now and we'd be knee deep in WWIII. I wish I could think how things woud be if Ron Paul had won. Not in this country.

It's like everyone forgot that the Afghan govt is only shaded out by Somalia as the most corrupt. Yeah, lets build that security force up even though the Afghan economy could never afford it. What a god damn joke. And has john mccain ever met a war he didn't like?

Forget 3rd party, that ain't never happening. So it was a choice of how much escalation more than naivete. Maybe a little naive in thinking the dude was too smart for this shit and might see the light.

There is no plan in place that says we'll be gone by 2017. It was just a flippant remark by an arrogant moron.

He plans to escalate more. Prolonging the decision was for the leaks/propaganda to take effect not to contemplate history.

I personally have had to make severe concessions this past year. Whatever handouts obama has given out haven't hit my area unless you talk about the money my corporation used doing some government jobs at our r&d center while our union was making said concessions. I was bitching about the constant implication that unions are somehow evil in the authors eyes.

No where did I even imply that al qaeda was the same as the mafia. The mafia is much more scary.

Or maybe you talk of the Union's corrupt leadership? Try to distinguish because it pisses me off that you continue to bash Unions as if the working man shouldn't unite to get his fair share. Try reigning in the corrupt coporations that make Unions a neccessity.

Maybe we can try mob bosses in a military tribunal.
