I dont want to blame Bush. I have supported him all the way. However! The Iraq situation is A) as the media portrays it or B) we are winning or C) somewhere in between. I would guess C. I think some General(s) should be fired. Haditha, Ramadi, Baquoba, areas should have been Fallujahed. Sadr's militia. I know there is a Iran-Syria component as well. We have to militarily defeat the enemy before a political settlement can be arranged. It seems we are trying the political before the military. But maybe this is all academic, since Iran is next. Bush will take them out and soon I think. Then maybe we can eliminate Sadr.
Whatever happens, Rumsfeld should NOT go.
