The surge of 30,000 is sent in. Petreaus recommends the 30,000 out by summer of '08 (in time for elections) leaving the pre surge levels as they were, which actually equals no change in number of troops, and bush keeps the occupation as it is with this brief charade.

Tell me noone is falling for the BS. Please.

1. I like the way Olbermann described it last night.
He said it was like a 25% sale. Where the department store jacks up the price 25% before they put it sale for 25% off. Well, didn't the crazy king george tell us he would run the US like a business? He was going to be our first CEO king, I mean pResident.
