Glad there's finally questioning of Bush's mistakes before he makes them this time.

Non-binding.........they're just trying to make people feel better about casting that democratic vote. They know that walking out IS NOT an option.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

We're not front line in this offensive. It's the Iraqis' 18 brigades with our 5 working back up and support. We cleaned out Najaf, Mosul, Fallujah, etc...as the front line; they're asking for nothing but support here. I would think it's part of training their military to be independent of us.

So you're telling me with 130,000 soldiers already deployed in Iraq, we really should send this many more? What the fuck is 22,000 more going to do besides create more targets?

Out of 130,000 only about 15,000 are actually seeing action. The others are in logistics positions or gaurds for the facilities for the logistics. These 22,000 aren't your national guard troops. These are the specialists.

Like I said, these folk aren't front line.......they'll be back-up and support positions.
