Sept. 9, 2007, 9:57 a.m.It seems his cabinet are at war with each other too, but there aren't enough troops left to send to protect him from those who don't agree with The Decider.
We are spread too thin
We are imploding from within
We are on a continuous spin
Cycle of lies and death
When will it end
How much will we spend?
No end in sight
From this evil war we fight

Sept. 9, 2007, 11:21 p.m.ranchhand the surge is a very short term action that Gates and other generals have said so on the record, the long term goals that are needed have been mishandled from day one. And the most telling proof of this is we are having men and women going back two,three, or four tours, its time we started demanding answers from all the so called leaders

Sept. 9, 2007, 11:47 p.m.Bush ought to be sent to Iraq to do something except shake hands and strut around. Give him a rifle and make him to stay until it's over.

Sept. 10, 2007, 12:23 a.m.I'm sure glad the Washington Post sits in on the President's cabinet meetings or we'd never really know what is going on!.
Personally I read in The National Inquirer that the "Alien" has been advising the past three presidents and that Bush is related to the wolf boy. I wonder if they got their same inside information from a Post source?

Sept. 10, 2007, 2:32 a.m.This "surge" and its alleged success (to be seen with a microscope) is just a fig leaf to delay the realization of the fiasco in Iraq until the end of the Bush term. Then the catastrophic Iraqi blunder can be dropped on the lap of the next Administration, which will have to deal with this poisonous gift. And if this Administration is Democratic, all the better, it will be accused of "losing" Iraq. Meanwhile,thousands more lives will be lost, or ruined, and billions of dollars will be wasted. Then, Mr Bush will do the lucrative speakers' circuit (to make ends meet, no doubt)explaining how his good policies were sabotaged by crooked politicians, an ungrateful population, and most of the rest of the world.

Sept. 10, 2007, 4:44 a.m.MajJohn you should A] change your glasses or B] change the batteries in your hearing aid, a lot of people myself inclueded have been asking WHY are we in iraq for the last four years. Most of your statements that I've read are nothing more then polictical BS or ignored the problem all together, as I said before about you, you are very brave with others people blood. Stop towing the party line and look at the facts as they are
