The long awaited September Iraq Report dog and pony show is over. Well, almost. The horse’s ass will tell us tonight that he will adopt Petraeus recommendations. Why wouldn’t he? They are his own recommendations. Funny how he made this decision in about 2 minutes after Petraeus had finished giving his report to congress. Like he didn’t know months ago what that report would say or what his response would be. Again Petraeus gives a rosey outlook to what will happen in Iraq. Congress (the dog part of this show) put up a good front in the questioning of Petraeus and Crocker. Even some Republicans acted like they have had enough. Now tonight the horse’s ass will, no doubt, ask for billions more to fund this nightmare, and congress will, no doubt, put on another dog and pony show, tell us how they don’t have the votes to end the war (which is total bullshit) and then give him the money. We’ll be informed that they are going to draw down troops. Wooptyfuckindoo. The batallion that is coming home next month was due to come home next month anyway. The withdrawal of the remaining troops in this reduction will just bring troop levels back to “pre’surge” level by next summer. The remaining troops mission wil remain the same. And we’re right back where we started from. And now they’ve pranced Condi out there today to say she’s going to press for peace discussions in the Middle East, and that we’re at the beginning of a LONG process in Iraq. Realllly? Where the fuck have you been for the past 4 years? Just asking….. I’m disgusted.
Really disgusted.
