#1 Gosh, that's almost like common sense, y'know? Mebbe he should sit down with General Skeery and explain it to him.

#2 But it's still a quagmire, right? Quackmire! Quackmire!

And what about the brutal Afghan winter? How will we ever cope with that? Oh, wait! That was the last quagmire. Never mind.

#3 The true quagmire is within Democrat political circles. Hence the projection into Iraq, Katrina, and the media.

#4 If we don't have at least a 20k drawdown by the 2006 elections, the donks will have a big, big issue.

#5 Nonsense. The American people were prepared to continue support for the Viet Nam war until Johnson caved. They'll keep supporting this one. Taxes, spending, the economy, gas prices and immigration are all much more important to the 2006 elections. The donks will have a big issue and the MSM will bury us in coverage, but that's going to happen regardless of how many troops are "drawn down". And it won't change enough votes to make a difference.
