breaking: CBS radio news reporting troop levels in Irag going UP!

[MnFats]

Gen. Casey asked for more in anticipation of third anniversary of war...

[aden_nak]

1. It was just on CBS's nightly TV broadcast as well.

[Inland]

2. It's the same theory as budget deficits, apparently.

They go up in the short run, but we are on a plan to cut them in half from the high water mark that, frankly, has yet to be found.

[babylonsister]

3. Breaking on CNN also. Guess they're not hearing the masses.

I hope it bites this admin in the ass-yesterday.:grr:

[spanone]

4. This is after we already elevated troop levels for the 'democratic' vote.

[NanceGreggs]

5. Send all the Republicans!

What more fitting way for ALL OF THEM to 'celebrate' the Third Anniversary of this debacle!

:party: :nuke: :party: :nuke: :party:

6. 40 years ago

they at least had the troops available when they kept sending more to Nam. But where are they coming from now?

[Talismom]

7. This scares me. I'm really getting worried that they're starting to step

up the move toward attacking Iran.

[deadparrot]

8. Fuckers.

I'm so tired of it.

Fuck all of them.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

9. And I thought shrubya wanted to make the troop cuts permanent. n/t

[jaxx]

11. Shrub lies.

[madmunchie]

10. Must be pretty f**kin bad if they have to send MORE troops

at a time when we are supposed to be drawing down the troop levels and must be pretty f**kin bad if the media has to report on it.

My son says that German troops are coming in and he is in the North of Iraq. I was talking to him on a cell phone and heard the machine guns in the backround. He was on base. There was a helicopter noise in the backround to. Jeff said they were going off to shoot people trying to get onto the base. This is pretty far north to. Where it is supposed to be so quiet and great!

[bigdarryl]

12. More troops

I hope your son makes it out of Iraq alived. these dumbass chickenhawks in this administration could care less about him. this is CRAZY!

[madmunchie]

13. Thanks, I hope so to

It was pretty strange talking on the phone to him and hearing machine guns in the backround

[liveoaktx]

15. Bet you they are MASSING on the IRAN border-he's going to

invade without Congressional approval

[madmunchie]

16. He's at Diamondback, is that what they would mass?

[RC]

18. We can barely hold their own against a defenseless 3rd world

country. Iran would be suicide.

[malaise]

19. I feel it for you

Thankfully my nephew is back home with his wife and daughter and has left the army. His wife wanted him to go back to earn some big salary, but when we finished with her, that was that.

Edit- add.

[magellan]

14. Three effin' years TOO LATE

No, they don't hear the people. They don't give a damn what the people say unless it happens to fit with their plans. Otherwise, IGNORE is on. But we should still tell them because our soldiers have been silenced and count on our support.

BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW!!

17. Making up for the British troops who are leaving n/t

21. The Bush Regime will never let go.

"The terrorists want to control the oil. Our way of life will be at risk". George W. Bush (Nov. 2005)

[go west young man]

20. It's Vietnam all over again. They are in total denial. The

real problem is that they chose to fight an unnecessary war. There was never any support for it except in the overeactive boisterous minds of foolish U.S. republicans. The rest of the world always knew it was a ruse for oil.
