Sending 20,000 more is a "Political Decision"

The president would like to us to “sacrifice” 20,000 more Americans to Iraq, because well gee, it might make him look much better in the history books. Remember? We guessed that it was all about his legacy. Heck, they admit it now.

“The plan would also throw more U.S. money at Iraq for reconstruction and a jobs program. Interestingly enough, one administration official admitted to us today that this surge option is more of a political decision than a military one because the American people have run out of patience and President Bush is running out of time to achieve some kind of success in Iraq.”

So we were right. This is more about bush’s legacy than anything else. Okay Democrats in DC. Let’s start with that. Throw this in his face and tell him no deal. Our military men and women are worth a hell of a lot more to us than how history will remember him. We would rather have live soldiers, than trumped up history books. He made his bed and now let him lay in it. No sacrifice to save his sorry reputation. It’s way too late for that anyway.
