Well, at least the muzzie terrorists will have a year & a half to R&R before they start up their terrorist attacks again. Viet Nam redux.

Maybe the date is based on the November 2010 elections—he doesn’t want his base mad at him or dispirited when it’s time to keep Congress in Democratic hands, to allow his socialist revolution to continue.

And his proposed budget for this year almost doubles the amount to be spent on Iran and Afghanistan for next year. I wonder what he expects to spend the money on...

“Maybe the date is based on the November 2010 elections—he doesn’t want his base mad at him or dispirited when it’s time to keep Congress in Democratic hands, to allow his socialist revolution to continue.”

The socialist plan will fail with higher unemployment, higher inflation and higher interest rates.

“If” the Gelding Old Party gets a testicle & spine implant before 11/2010; because of Hussein & the 'Rat majority's incompetence, liberalism & stupidity, the Republicans will have an opportunity to retake the majority in the Senate & maybe the House too. But, as we all know, “if” is the biggest word in the dictionary.

Before meeting Obama, Harry Reid, the Democratic leader in the Senate, said he would convey his concern, saying that “talk about 50,000 - that’s a little higher number than I anticipated”.

No it’s based on the fact that zero has to surrender in Iraq ASAP because he wants that money for his domestic porkulus spending. Part of the new budget numbers iare based on the “savings” from not being in Iraq 10 years from now. It’s covering his sorry behind.

He’d better factor in logistics and intelligence in this very risky plan. Iran’s Mullahs have got to be pleased.
