You never leave anyone outside the wire.


That is the first commandment. You always get everyone back inside the wire. For those of you who have never come closer than a wet dream to carrying arms that means you bring back the listening post, the patrols.

Bush will rot in hell because he now has a whole army outside the wire and has no way to get them back. He got them out there and now he just sits on his pimply butt in an air conditioned office and reads the casualty reports. He has a soul blacker than most of those he snuffed in Texas.

1. Very good point
He uses people. He does not care about them. Our brothers, sons, husbands suffer for his stupid decisions, he plays golf.

2. I like your sig line...probably I find myself full of doubt a lot...
like now, still not sure what you are saying. Do you mean the troops are too spread out? No coherant plan? Troops are too pissed off? What? Bring the patrols back where? Sorry, female civilian here, must s-p-e-l-l o-u-t f-o-r m-e.

3. They're in laager while he drinks a lager.
Going out and putting yourself in vastly outnumbered defensive positions isn't the best of plans.

If the current partisan tactics of hitting "soft targets" continues, there will be less and less locals who will work as support personnel. When that happens, we will have to bring in people to fill those jobs. Who's going to do that?

4. Bullshit!
Bush doesn't read casualty reports. After all, it's far less than die on highways everyday. And it is their duty to die for him. And Bush's soul is far blacker than any person ever on Texas' death row. The guy is on par with Hitler and Stalin. He is a malignant psychopathic narcissist whose killings only number in the tens of thousands because his subordinates are not quite as insane as he is.

5. Ah, but he's on vacation cutting brush in Texas...
...in between all those big bucks fundraising efforts. He doesn't have time to read the casualty reports. Maybe "A Very Hungry Caterpillar."

6. I don't know if it's appropriate here but contrast ...
Bush's concern for the troops with Wesley Clark's descent down a cliff under fire to make sure that bodies of fallen troops were recovered.

Bush doesn't give a drizzly shit about anyone else. Not even his contributers.
