(November 19, 2007) – Like I was sayin… if we don’t pull out soon, things will continue to get better.
Today I was reading an article in the NYT indicating how the attacks in Iraq continue to decline.
According to the article, since the “surge”, Iraqi forces casualties are down 40% and civilian fatalities are down 75% over the last few months. Other news stories point to a continued decline in U.S. caualties. I for one would like to see this continue. The sooner things become stable in Iraq, the sooner our troops can come home. I am shocked by the number of people who get upset by good news from Iraq (see my post about Clyburn).
I would imagine however, with this news, you will begin to see further calls for U.S. forces to pull out now from the”please don’t let this thing work out” crowd in congress who would rather see America fail and gain a political win for THE PARTY than see things improve.
