Put it this way, New York City has 45,000 cops on the street right now. 5,000 more in that one city might make a difference. But, in all of Iraq or even four problem areas, it is nothing.

This is exactly the point. If Bush were serious about "winning", he would put in way more than 20K troops. Instead, he came up with an amount that won't result in any change, but will result in more deaths to U.S. soldiers. This is beyond appalling...it is criminal. I'm sitting here knowing that our president is a total madman and feeling helpless.

I couldn't watch him. I haven't been able to for quite some time now because I feel the same way. I don't know what to do about it.

hit the mute button and then provide my own voicetrack for the Shurb-tator, of **** he would really like to say, example:

"Instead of sending more troops over to Iraq I suggest to Congress we send the citizens of New Orleans who are still homeless from Hurricane Katrina, that way they can earn their keep..."
