Bush "Flip-Flops" On Troop Levels In Iraq

I have to say I get tired of writing about the lies President Bush tells. Just 18 months ago he said sending more troops to Iraq was a bad idea, and today he wants more troops! The guy can’t make up his mind, and worse he has no idea of what he wants to achieve. His excuse for not sending more troops was that he didn’t want the Iraqis to become too dependent on us for security, and now that’s the main problem, security.

His generals told him it was a bad idea to send a "surge" of troops, and so he fires the generals. I can’t believe that Bush is coming up with this crap on his own, I only hope that whoever is feeding him this stuff will either stop it or take a moment to really evaluate what is going on in Iraq. We need an exit strategy, not an escalation strategy.
