3 US soldiers missing in Iraq.Portion of Iraq's daily oil production is missing. It's a good bet al Qaeda and insurgents are getting some of that money. Imagine how much worse it will be if we choose to lose the war.
Russia out-competes US and EU for pipeline deal. If we really wanted that deal for strategic reasons, why did we let Russia out-compete us?

Praise for John Stossel. The author points out that Stossel began his career with a liberal mindset, but through his investigations he became libertarian. That clears up some confusion for me, because I remember when he started, and he was a flaming liberal, but now he does a great job as an honest reporter about government versus the free market. Now I know what happened to change him.

Petraeus's letter indicates that we are going to lose this war regardless of the amount of troops or the amount of time we are there.
ReplyDeleteSo, since as Petraeus's letter indicates, defeat is certain, I am forced to say - Bring our Troops Home Now. If the government isn't going to let them win, then keeping them out there spilling their blood is tantamount to the Bush Administration murdering them.
Please understand, I am a conservative, but after seeing all the soldiers that Bush has arrested for doing their jobs, I can't be a Bush-bot. Fight to win or don't fight at all. There is no other option.
