The President Is A Wise And Cunning Little Man

Posted by: Avinash on Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

The American people have made their voices clear…they want out of Iraq, very soon, very quickly. So as he always does, our beloved President has taken the wisest course in making sure that he heeds their cries.

Oh, yeah. As the San Francisco Chronicle reports, it’s also to prove all you naysayers wrong.

The Bush administration is quietly on track to nearly double the number of combat troops in Iraq this year, an analysis of Pentagon deployment orders showed Monday.

The little-noticed second surge, designed to reinforce U.S. troops in Iraq, is being executed by sending more combat brigades and extending tours of duty for troops already there.

The actions could boost the number of combat soldiers from 52,500 in early January to as many as 98,000 by the end of this year if the Pentagon overlaps arriving and departing combat brigades.

Separately, when additional support troops are included in this second troop increase, the total number of U.S. troops in Iraq could increase from 162,000 now to more than 200,000 — a record-high number — by the end of the year.

The numbers were arrived at by an analysis of deployment orders by Hearst Newspapers.

“It doesn’t surprise me that they’re not talking about it,” said retired Army Maj. Gen. William Nash, a former U.S. commander of NATO troops in Bosnia, referring to the Bush administration. “I think they would be very happy not to have any more attention paid to this.”

Don’t you see the logic folks? The more troops we send there and the longer we keep our worn fighters there, the more likely the Iraqis will realize that we’re just getting ready for a war with Iran. Then they’ll all just stop fighting and ! The brilliant maneuverability of our leader to finally win the Iraq War never seizes to amaze.

Other top world stories this week include the obvious, the sobering, and the alarming.

And All This Time I Just Wanted Peace! From the Hindustan Times, the stalwart President Bush is also fighting his battles from the past. Again he tries to show that there was indeed a link between Al-Qaeda and Iraq through declassified documents…although nowhere does he state that it involved documents. And now he states that we’re fighting in Iraq to keep it from becoming a “terror sanctuary” for Al-Qaeda, a sanctuary that would never have been possible without the invasion. We always love when the President finds a new reason for us to be fighting in Iraq. Gives us a fresh start to the month until we’re battered down by the casualty lines.

Impeachy Scenario: Despite all these positive developments by the Administration, the President is not getting any popular in the country he runs. An astounding 39 percent of Americans (and probably a disproportionate amount of our readers) seem to want Bush and Cheney gone–NOW. Yet no movement has yet to gather any steam to send the two political divas to the courts. Why would that be, other than the fact that they’re rabid left-wing dogs? Gary Kamiya has a theory has to why exactly the President isn’t likely to go anytime soon, and doesn’t involve the vengeful Lord striking down America with his thunderbolts.

John Edwards Wants You…To Advance His Political Agenda. Don’t worry, not every hopeful story we’re writing about today is about the President. The Washington Post reports on John Edwards’s groundbreaking plan to end the war in Iraq: Compulsory military service. Either we withdraw (bad), or the President accepts the plan and sends all of us to Iraq! We think that’s a splendid idea, especially for all those whiny Cal students. Getting to meet all the social degenerates, angry ex-felons, and idiot rednecks around the country will be an enlightening experience for all parties. And by enlightening,we mean getting hazed in your military bunk and psychologically tormented by the physically adept bullies out there. It’s gonna be patriotic, baby!
