No Plan No End in Sight in Iraq - Continue until it's finished!

[Imagevision]

Bush has no strategy, no real plan, for winning the war in Iraq. So we're stuck in a murderous quagmire without even the suggestion of an end in sight.

The administration has never been straight with the public about the war, and there's no reason to believe it will start being honest now. There is a desperate need for a serious national conversation about alternatives to the Bush approach in Iraq, which is tantamount to a permanent American military presence in that country.

The president, ensconced in a long vacation, exemplifies the vacuum of leadership on this crucial issue, which demands nothing less than the sustained attention of the wisest men and women the U.S. has to offer. They could be politicians, academics, civic or religious leaders, corporate executives - whoever. The longer they remain on the sidelines, the longer the carnage in Iraq will continue.

1. Sad but true

The plan is permanent war

2. It is amazing...these guys have no strategy at all!

They don't have an explanation as to why we are there; they don't have any idea when we will be leaving, and they have no idea what to do while we are there!

Yep, sounds like a great plan to me!
