Democrats extend troop deployments

[Skybird]

Extremely cheap shot at the democrats in this topic headline.

As a matter of fact the Pentagon announced the decision, which was made by the pentagon, and accoriding governmental and Republican figures.

If Bush only would honour the will of the majority of Iraqis ordinary people (who since months said they demand a definite date for withdrawal - we even had a heated debated on that in this forum, many months ago), and if he just would admit that two thirds of Americans, roughly said, are against his policy in general, and handling of Iraq in special, so that Bush just would accept responsibility for a catastrophic military failure, and would agree to name a date within a reasonable timeframe instead of crushing the military more and more for the purpose of chasing follies, then he would have acchieved cooperation with the democrats on the issue of war funds.

That's what it will be about in the years to come: getting the troops out and blaiming Republicans rightfully to be responsible for the Iraq mess, while Democrats will be accused of being responsible for not accepting to wage an eternal, lost war for nothing. what it means: American soldiers are risking their lifes for internal American party politics, and get shot for winning voter's marks.

Grossartig.

Senator Chuck Hagel, a Nebraska Republican who has been highly critical of President Bush’s conduct of the war, called the Pentagon announcement “a stark admission that the administration’s policies in Iraq are doing permanent damage to our military.”
