Petraeus, Seeing Gains in Iraq as Fragile, Is Wary of Cuts

Petraeus, Seeing Gains in Iraq as Fragile, Is Wary of Cuts

"Victory means exit strategy, and it's important for the President to explain to us what the exit strategy is." : Texas Governor George W. Bush, April 9, 1999, on the US intervention in Kosovo

As a former Marine who worked in sensitive positions at Head Quarters Marine Corps, Atlantic I am anxious for someone to explain to me why we even need a professional soldier, a warrior, one with a vested interest in continuing combat with ANYONE, to explain to us, the people, why we should remain in a quagmire that even the most obtuse will admit has been a failure.

Don't piss on me and tell me that it is raining!

In the Interest of Full Disclosure

Following the oligarchic doctrine of "full disclosure", the following is the editorial decision on necessary disclosure concerning the authors/editors of this blog:

IT'S NONE OF YOUR F-ING BUSINESS!

My advance appologies

If any of the information, such as names and dates regarding my own testimonials, are incorrect I apologize in advance and would be happy to make the corrective edits at your emailed request. Unless you tell me, I'll never know. I tell it as I remember it.

I also post articles of interest with or without my own commentary. Frankly, some of the stories just leave me speechless. They usually reinforce the theme of what I am trying to relay, however. I try my best to give credit to the original authors. If I have posted your work here and you object to my sharing it, simply notify me by email and I will accommodate you by removing your work or any reasonable concession that you may require.

And furthermore, about my general tenor, don't worry. One day, you will be just as screwed over and just as angry as I am. I suppose it will take that to wake the automatons up from their indoctrinated sleep.
