2. Well, obviously we can't allow terrorists to cross the borders
to help America's enemies.

We invade Cambodia tomorrow.

7. pulling in Abizaid
Abizaid will not have the guts to tell chimpry the bad news. Remember bush does not tolerate bad news.

http://www.forbes.com/business/energy/feeds/ap/2006/10/20/ap3107881.html

<snip>


He said he planned consultations in the next day with Gen. John Abizaid, the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, and Gen. George Casey, who leads the U.S.-led Multinational Forces in Iraq.

"We are constantly adjusting tactics so we can achieve our objectives and right now, it's tough," the president said.

He declined to say whether he thought such a change was necessary.

The president has often said that U.S. goals in Iraq remain the same: to have a country that can sustain itself, govern itself and help in the war on terror.

9. I watched war whore Babs Starr report this in CNNI
She was fucking breathless with the anticipation of the big pow wow. I would bet a hundred bucks nothing changes. Not a damn thing. And if it does it will be a bad decision like bombing the crap out of al-sadr's militia who are raising hell right now in the south. If that happens....

o m g :(

10. A gathering of the geniuses who engineered the graveyard.
No doubt, even more brilliant plans will emerge from the meeting of Der Fuhrer and his lackies. The price will be paid in lives for the the new stratergery that he and the ribbon bedecked asskissers come up with.

The bosses decide who gets to die for their ambitions.

16. There's only one way out:
Cut and Run.

That's the only option now IMO.
