About this RW BS about withdrawal timelines letting the enemy know what we are doing.

Why don't we call neocons on this talking point? Like the Iraqis wouldn't notice movement and changes in troop deployments on the ground there if we started withdrawing with out a published timetable? I don't get this argument. Even more, I don't get why no one will take that cog out of the spin machine.

When you've devoted your life to defending the indefensible and rationalizing the wet dreams of a group of sociopaths, I imagine you grab onto anything you can get hold of.

2. The Vietnamese fought for 30 years....

First the French, then the U.S. If only we had stayed another 30 years, "success" would be right around the corner!
