So why send more troops to Iraq?
Prime Minister Maliki said he does not want them .....

but bush wants to send them anyway.

The Iraqi people overwhelmingly have said they don't won't them ....

but bush wants to send them anyway.

The Generals and the Joint Chiefs of Staff have said no ...

The American people by better than 3 to 1 are opposed to sending more troops ....

but bush wants to send them anyway.

The troops on the ground in Iraqi question their mission and are opposed to sending in more ...

but bush wants to send them anyway.

The Iraqi Study group wrote that we should be looking @ ways to get out and that additional troop would not help ...

but bush wants to send them anyway.

So why does bush want to send more troops?
The only 3 reasons I can come up w/ are:

1. Keep that Iraqi oil flowing to the big oil companies.
2. bush is unwilling to admit a mistake
3. bush wants to run out the clock and "fob off the Iraqi mess," onto the next President.

1. I agree with the three, but wish to add #4 -
Troops ready to bomb Iran and remake him as "The WAR Prez" so the eyes of the sheeple will again glaze over with "patriotism" as they oooh and ahh over the purty "fireworks" of shock'n'awe.....

3. Solution for a clusterfuck
Cluster more and fuck harder.

Just the sort of solution you might expect from a guy who's coasted through life, President Gentlemen's C.
