I didn't bother watching the clown's speech last night. The Red Sox were beating the shit out of Baltimore.
But from what I've gathered over the past few days- so Bush is going to send about 30,000 troops back home by next spring?
Really? No shit!
Um, the Generals (probably including Petraeus --secretly) have been telling him that the US Army will become combat ineffective by next summer if we keep the troop level at 170,000 for any longer.
Any talk of a drawdown based on successes or performance is completely disingenuous. They're all full of shit! We're going to begin a slow, methodical withdrawl, largely because we have too with a small all-volunteer Army...
