How many times did you hear some idiot say this in the waning months of 2002 and beginning of 2003?
How many of you believe that 25% support for a war in our great “democracy” ought to indicate that the end of it is near?
It’s not.
Of course, the word has been out on the 14 “enduring bases” for two years, but there is a lot of conflicting information around, like this story from last week where Bush said the mission would be “turned over” to the Iraqis by the end of the year.
Now he’s being a bit more honest. Asked today (Tues. 3/21/06) whether there will ever be a time when there are no American troops in Iraq, the President said,
“That, of course, is an objective. And that will be decided by future presidents and future governments of Iraq.”
Three years into this disaster, and there are, at the very least, three more to go.
Let’s go get Ahmadinejad and get out!
