So, F-YOU!!!
"Bush thought likely to reduce US forces in Iraq by year's end; Further troop cuts possible for 2009" by Robert Burns, Associated Press | July 22, 2008
BAGHDAD - Iraq's security has improved so much, even as US troop levels have dropped, that President Bush seems likely to order thousands more soldiers home by year's end.
Two weeks of observing US and Iraqi troops in and around Baghdad, coupled with Associated Press interviews with commanders and planners, suggest a likelihood that Bush will move to reduce the US force by perhaps another combat brigade, or roughly 3,000 to 4,000 soldiers, toward the end of the year. More cuts seem possible next year.
Not all the reasons are good news: The situation has deteriorated in Afghanistan, and commanders there say they need a substantial infusion of combat power and military trainers to curb the insurgency. US domestic political pressures to get out of Iraq are building, too.
Since WHEN the FUCK has THAT EVER MATTERED?!?
I'm INSULTED by this kind of "journalism," readers.
Which is why both you and I are here!!!!!
Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama, who met with Maliki in Baghdad yesterday, says he would get all combat forces out within 16 months of taking office. Republican John McCain is opposed to setting any timeline for withdrawals, and says troops will come home as security improves. That's what the White House says, too.
Yeah, never mind what the IRAQIS SAY!
Extra reductions this year might be made by simply canceling plans to replace a combat brigade that is finishing its 15-month tour in Iraq this fall. The departing brigade's operating area most likely would be assumed by a unit nearby, spreading it thinner as has been done in numerous instances over the past year.
Fresh reductions this fall would entail some risk of losing momentum toward a stable Iraq. The Iraqi army is still weak in some areas, and the Iraqi police are a much bigger question mark.
EXCUSE ME?
After this FEEL-GOOD piece of SHIT article, I get a qualifying paragraph?!
What about all the PROGRESS we have made that my war-criminal government and complicit liars of MSM have told us about??!
Readers, have you HAD IT UP TO HERE with the SHIT SHOVEL like me?!?!
