Just because the Supreme Court elected Codpiece, why did he think the Turks were stupid enough to save his arse??

It appears that Codpiece is getting closer and closer to the ol' bath tub and sugar water treatment for his "appointed" presidency..

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a major setback to U.S. efforts to attract military help in Iraq, a Turkish official said Tuesday his country won't send peacekeeping troops without a significant change in the situation there. That makes it virtually certain the United States will have to send thousands more U.S. reservists early next year.
No additional countries have contributed forces in Iraq since the United Nations Security Council approved a new resolution last month. Bush administration officials had hoped the U.N. action would persuade reluctant allies to send more forces.

Turkey had been the best hope. But Turkey's ambassador to the United States, Osman Faruk Logolu, said his country will not send troops without an explicit invitation from the U.S.-appointed Iraqi Governing Council — some of whose members have vigorously opposed the idea.
