So the 'pre-surge' continues. Soon, we'll be luck enough to see the real 'surge'. Currently, approximately 200,000 soldiers fight for 'democracy' in Iraq [roughly US troops + foriegn troops + paid mercenaries (i.e. Blackwater)]. So, the President's solution is to add 10% more (20,000 troops). Even assuming these extra troops perform 100% efficient, things will merely get 10% better in Iraq. Will 10% be worth the continuing carnage of American soldiers? Don't look to the Democrats for help. They will sit idly by as they did when the gov't suspended habeas corpus, opened mail, banned the novel 'America Deceived' from Amazon, stole private lands, conducted illegal wire-taps and continues wars in the Middle East based on a false-flag event known as 9/11. If the Democrats cannot stop the current 10% increase in this war, then they will never stop 100% of this war.

Your right about one thing: Dems talk one game and play another.

To conservatives this is nothing new. If they told everyone what they really think, they'd never get elected.

They really feel this war is necessary. After all, they voted for it, before they voted against it.

Send in the American Mujihadeen Army from the American Republic! The Insurgents are fearful of Judah Ben-Hur, Amb.
