Picture of the Day - 2
So here's the sequence:
1) George Bush says we can "withdraw troops" if security is better.
2) Petraeus "recommends" to "withdraw troops" because he has to.
3) The surge was a success.
(Footnotes: "Withdrawing troops" simply means ending the surge as planned. Restrictions on the Army require an end to the surge.)

Soon to follow "the surge" will be "the push," or "The Surge II."

How about "Forward Together III - The Reckoning?"

So Petraeus can say 'the surge is working' and be on The Decider's good side, or he can tell the truth and kiss a long Army career bye-bye.
I hope he'll say what's obvious to a kindergartener.
But I think he'll just be reading what's fed to him.

They're going to chew up Petraeus and his credibility the same way the chewed up Powell.
