He hides behind his Generals
In the past few weeks Bush has been telling us that his Generals tell him more troops would just make the insurrection in Iraq worse. They may be correct and all that is the way Bush is trying to deflect criticism from the way he conducted the war.
From the very first day after Saddam fell, we began loosing control in Iraq. We did not have the force levels we needed as most of the Generals now admit and as Sen. McCain
told us. We did not prevent the old elements of Saddam's forces from operating in the areas we bypassed on our hurry to Baghdad. We did not prevent the terrorists from using the ammo from several hundred ammo dumps thought the country. We did not prevent foreign elements from coming into Iraq and begin terrorist operations. We allowed the insurrection to begin and that has resulted in most of the American deaths and injuries. If we had the forces needed, we would have established control from day one and never allowed the carnage we see day after day in Iraq.
Below is just one link that helps document how inept the Bush plan for this war has been from the start.
