"Still, the move, which hasn't been publicly announced, could have political implications for President Bush . As a candidate during the 2000 election, he harshly criticized the Clinton administration for allowing two divisions just back from missions in the Balkans to fall to C-4 levels.

>>> Guess what goes around, comes around. It was a DUMB argument then, just as it's a dumb argument now.

>>> Allowing troops 30 days of down-time, fresh after a year long deployment in a war zone, makes sense --- despite what politicians may say.

Bush lied in 2000 sayng two divisions were not ready. In fact Afghanistan and Iraq were both fought with Clinton-era military divisions, equipment and training. Bush has been lying ever since, but that was a whopper.

Bush will just have to draw deeper on his "coalition of the willing"!
