Iraq Surge Continues with No End in Sight

The Center for American Progress sets the facts straight on President Bush's speech to the nation September 13, 2007 on the troop surge policy in Iraq. The surge will end in 2008, not because it has been effective, but because the Army lacks sufficient troops and faces a military readiness crisis.

You Sir were wrong about the surge.

"A lot of words come out of your mouth, but what do they mean?"

He sounds like the "and such as", "we don't have maps" "and further more, such as"

You are exactly right; worse than McCarthy, and that was bad. Readers, look up definition of 'fascism' and remove all doubt. Our freedoms are being eroded even as adoring fans love Palin for her 'relatability'and McCain because he's a 'maverick'.

No more right-wingers! Please THINK! Do research. Read the Constitution and look up the writers' background. Vote Obama. Don't waste a vote on a third party. Use logic and reason. Don't believe all your emails; check them for lies.

Thank you,clpsw!! It looks like the vets returning home may get the same disgraceful treatment you did. And allahwasafag, not one of your sentences make sense. You sound like Bush or Palin. A lot of words come out of your mouth, but what do they mean? Aid and comfort to our enemy? Are you kidding me? For a few more months,we have the 1st amendment, unless Bush's stooge gets elected. If so, we'll end up calling him der fuhrer. This is the Bush brat's illegal and unholy fight.

I suggest that you watch the following three part series on You Tube for no other reason than to note the plethora of American army bases. The Oil Wars have only just started...

GLOBAL WARMING : THE OIL MUST FLOW ! PT-1

The American government has no interest in terrorism, the Iraqi people, or even our own soldiers. They have no intention of ever leaving Iraq. Costs can be bourne by continuing to cut social programs. Middle America will, as in the past, be controlled by simple gimmicks such as the Department of Homeland Security's Terror Gauge.

Don't Trust any American Progressive Group, as they are the Same Group who built and funded the research into American & German genetics, commonly known as Darwinism, which led to mass sterilizations and euthanasia in the Death Camps Under the NAZI REGIME!

Google, War on the Weak and read about their crimes for yourself! NEVER TRUST A PROGRESSIVE, AS THEY WANT TO KILL OFF USELESS EATERS THAT DON'T MEASURE UP TO THEIR STANDARDS!!! WHICH MEANS YOU!

There are not enough troops to do it, And Invadeing Iran would be the stupidest move in history, They are 60 million people who stoped Sadam and most did not have weps.

Now they DO,and with Russia And China backing them, Who needs WW3 over what OIL?

[cycimian]

History repeats itself, Wars with more wars in sight all for domination in the world, Rome did that, Infact every world power at one time or another tried to bit off more then their lips could go around,

Wars are for those these days who can only make a profit from it,

Why don't you recommend your government to give them a part of your country to the Eropean Jewish conveert who are Zionist and falsely claiming the Palestine as their home land. Can you tell me where did Olmert and Natanyahu and other white Eropean convert to judaism lived in Palestine.?
