Re Rumsfeld "The people that are going to defeat that insurgency are going to be the Iraqis. And the Iraqis will do it not through military means solely, but by progress on the political side and giving the Iraqi people a sense that they have a stake in that country," he said. If this fool had thought seriously about the above prior to the war, there would be no insurgency, and a lot fewer American & Iraqi dead now. The sad thing is that I think they knew and didn't care. They wanted Saddam gone at any cost. And its the average American who bears the brunt of that cost. "I'm going to say this: I think we are winning, okay. I think we're definitely winning. I think we've been winning for some time," Myers told reporters. followed by this: "I think their capacity stays about the same and where they are right now is where they were almost a year ago," he said. What the ****! Myers is clearly a fool as well. No, I think it must be hard spinning Iraq into something positive which is the orders he has from Rumsfeld. The one silver lining to this debacle is that George may have succeeded in lifting energy prices to a plateau, allowing innovation to solve that problem, a much worse longterm problem then Saddam was anyway. The only way we will resolve the energy problem is through conservation and alternative energy sources. In fact, that's always been the solution. ANWR and the drilling of the coasts is a bitter joke. ted
