Again, I ask.
How do the "deficiencies" that Sen. Hagel cites, translate into "losing" in Iraq? These incidents do present difficulties, true, but nobody EVER said winning would be an easy walk in the park. Should the US wind down and depart from Iraq prematurely, the situation in Cambodia, as that tormented land was turned into a vast killing field by Pol Pot, will seem almost pastoral in comparison.
Now is not the time to go wobbly, Chuck.
You may ask, but all you have to do is actually read the article. He does not advocate "wind[ing] down and depart[ing] from Iraq prematurely." Quite the opposite.
Au contraire!
I heard Vice President (last throes) Cheney say it just this morning! It was pre-war video tape of his his famous "we'll be welcomed as liberators interview".
You Bots and your mindless denial kill me.
But its our troops getting killed that matter.
