Soldier In Iraq Calls Out Bush For Evading His Question About Escalation
On Monday, NPR senior correspondent Juan Williams interviewed President Bush and asked him a question from Spec. Ryan Schmidt of Forest Lake, MN, who is serving in Iraq: “What if your plan for a troop surge to Baghdad does not work?”
Bush avoided answering the question, stating:
Well, I would say to Ryan, I put it in place on the advice of a lot of smart people, particularly the military people who think it will work, and let us go into this aspect of the Iraqi strategy feeling it will work. But I will also assure Ryan that we’re constantly adjusting to conditions on the ground.
Williams didn’t press Bush further, instead switching the topic to Iran. But last night on NPR, reporter John McChesney followed up with Schmidt and asked him whether he believed the President adequately answered his question. Schmidt’s response was a resounding “NO!”
Schmidt added, “For some of us that are over here, particularly me, my unit, we all feel, what’s the point of us being extended if your initial plan to send more troops over here does not work? What are you going to do, Mr. President?”
