We know that most politicians practice hypocrisy, but this administration has taken it to an art form! Today the president said that the war spending bill proposed by Congress would "be to accept a policy that directly contradicts the judgment of our military commanders...." However, a Washington Post article from January states:
"Pentagon insiders say members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have long opposed the increase in troops and are only grudgingly going along with the plan because they have been promised that the military escalation will be matched by renewed political and economic efforts in Iraq. Gen. John P. Abizaid, the outgoing head of Central Command, said less than two months ago that adding U.S. troops was not the answer for Iraq." January 10, 2007, by Michael Abramowitz, Robin Wright and Thomas E. Ricks
This president can't ever bring himself to any kind of honesty or reality. What are we going to do with him as walls go up in Iraq and more people die every day?
