Bush to talk about war tonight (thurs), streaming video on fox.com
    #7405471 - 09/13/07 06:12 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Quote:

WASHINGTON β€” President Bush plans to reduce troop levels in Iraq by 5,700 by the end of December, and wants to draw down from 20 combat brigades there now to 15 brigades there by next summer, Bush said in a preview of his speech with network anchors Thursday.

Bush will address the nation in a speech from the Oval Office, and he is expected to say the surge he ordered in January has helped protect the Iraqi people from vicious attacks and is tamping down the worst of the sectarian violence seeking to tear the country apart.

I tuned the man out long ago when it became clear he doesn't listen.

Does anyone else find it odd that we have a representative government with a capitalistic society and economic stance, and we continue to waste money on a war that a majority of people dont want?

If our primary basis for our government and society is majority decides and making money, doesnt this seem diametrically opposed to the fundamental goal of America?

Well now bush seems to think they don't need as many troops... listening to him now. Funny how we need a surge, and then "oh, we don't need that many" convieniantly as his party stands to lose even more of its minority stake in the power game (legislativly at least)- against everything he said so far.

Anyways, Fox must have banned me.. can't get their video to work. On to MSNBC, who apparently doesn't support firefox, wtf? Isn't firefox like almost even w/ ie by now? Whatever, watching via IE at msnbc

Yeah I agree about the capitalistic angle. Their is no reason to pour money into forien project like this- even if the money is going to domestic companies. If we need a new deal-type public works project (which I kinda disagree with in principle) lets direct it at home.

I swear to god I have heard that speech before. Hasn't he promised to bring home troops a few times now and then conveniently changes his mind? He is too far disconnected from the american people. This guy needs to go and before the election removes him. He's nuts and is doing everything in his power to fuck this Iraq situation as hard as he can.
