Bush speaks truth

There will be no "graceful exit from Iraq."

  • I just read an article in the NYT this morning (http://tinyurl.com/yn5vgc) that says:"The Joint Chiefs of Staff are signaling that too rapid an American pullout would open the way to all-out civil war."

    Shouldn't we be mad as hell about the "spot" that Bush has gotten us into??

  • Yes, definitely. He led us into this almost textbook definition of a quagmire.

    I would add that the joint Chiefs are probably right, although the reason for the violence is that the US has created an artificial equilibrium they have maintained by force.
