The wingnuts are petrified. Seriously and completely freaked out.
They want everyone to keep quiet. Quit reporting. Mums the word.
Have these idiots never heard of a controlled leak before?
A headline at Huffington Post late tonight said it all: After Criticism Of Dems For Pushing Timeline,
Bush Admin. Now Has ‘Adjustable' Troop Withdrawal Schedule.
‘Adjustable' Troop Withdrawal Schedule. Classic stuff, really,
which everyone except Kerry and Feingold were too scared to wake up to and smell
the realities of war.
Newsweek
offers details, which include amnesty for insurgents who attacked American troops. How 'bout a little pepto with your Sunday paper, darling.
It will be interesting to hear what Russ
Feingold has to say on “Meet the Press,” but whatever it is it's
sure to make Republicans squeamish, and a few Democrats too, I imagine.
All the “stay the course” and let's don't set a timeline
crap from the Senate hierarchy just proves how many people just don't understand that this baby is o-v-e-r
for us. We can stay and train troops, offer cash and sweep in to rescue Iraqis
when needed. But as for making peace out of this mess, it's up to the Iraqis.
But somehow, Michelle Malkin and the wingnut set have decided that the New
York Times is somehow
giving aid and comfort to the insurgents. Never mind that it's the job of the
press to report stories. After all, it's not like anyone can trust the Bush
administration anymore.
According to a classified briefing at the Pentagon this week by the commander,
Gen. George W. Casey Jr., the number of American combat brigades in Iraq is
projected to decrease to 5 or 6 from the current level of 14 by December 2007.Under the plan, the first reductions would involve two combat brigades that
would rotate out of Iraq in September without being replaced. Combat brigades,
which generally have about 3,500 troops, do not make up the bulk of the 127,000-member
American force in Iraq.(snip)
According to the projections in General Casey's briefing, the number of combat
brigades would shrink to seven to eight by June 2007 and finally to five to
six by December 2007.At the same time, the number of bases in Iraq would decline as American forces
consolidated. By the end of the year the number of bases would shrink to 57
from the current 69. By June 2007, there would be 30 bases, and by December
2007 there would be only 11. By the end of 2007, the United States would have
three principal regional military commands: in Baghdad and the surrounding
area, in Anbar Province and the west, and in northern Iraq. … …
Memo to the Malkin tribe: wake up and smell the controlled leak, people. Your
abject ignorance is making this not even fun anymore.
