Do you think it's odd that after 4 years of war in Iraq without an exit plan that suddenly now...?

Question

that the Democrates have taken control of the House that Bush is talking about an exit plan?

Ok Have Gun...3 years 8 months, is that exact enough? Oh, I noticed you didn't answer the question.

Answer 1

I think it partially a coincidence. There has been talk of strategy for several months now. Support for the war is dwindling. Its a constant attack, its not getting much better. And, anticipating a dem win, they probably figured, they need one really soon.

I think its a combination of things forcing the issue.

Answer 2

The form of four,000 is only our troops death toll. We in no way hear concerning the death toll of our contractors (mercenaries) Iraqi civilian deaths that have been envisioned between 3 hundred,000 to correctly over a million and the displaced Iraqi households (additionally envisioned at properly over a million) All if this occurring in a interior reach two times the size of Idaho, and for easily no solid reason. The issues you cite are of subject and you're good, there does not look lots being carried out approximately them, even though that doesn't in any way excuse, clarify the Iraq conflict. i could suspect that over the final 5 years there have been better than 4,000 murders interior u . s . committed by ability of the victims companion. we would desire to start a campaign against marrage?

Answer 3

Not so fast. I wouldn't count your exit plans before they are hatched. Bush is having to deal with the loss in the election, but he still has a lot of power, and I would not expect him to give up the original plan without a fight. When I heard him speak, he still says he will listen to others if they have a better idea of how to win in Iraq. That doesn't yet sound to me like he has any plan to "cut and run." It remains to be seen if the force of the criticism from the military, the sea change in support Bush has lost from many conservatives, and if the Republican party distances themselves from him. If he has lost enough support, he may be forced to change his "ways," but it is not yet a done deal. These are powerful people we are dealing with here. They may just be handing us yet another of their big lies.

Answer 4

Bush is now a lame duck president. The Bush's will now start to focus on the nephew, Jeb's son (sorry, but the boy's name escapes me), as the next Bush in office.

Being a lame duck, Bush can no longer push the plan set out for him by Bush Sr. and Cheney.

Answer 5

well, the free ride to Greedville is over. with the Dems sitting in oversight and investigations pending the party train has pulled into Accountability Station. the likes Halliburton and the Carlyle Group will have to get their greedy corporate war profiteering snouts out of the Treasury trough so no point in "staying the course" anymore.

Answer 6

Odd ? You have to remember George Bush's behavior all along, He has displayed periods of misbehavior all along. I think it is either when he is on coke, or drinking that he makes these decisions. That is how he talks to God, he just gets high.

Answer 7

Oh it was probably his plan all along. Im sure if he wanted the Republicans to win they would have. This way the Democrats are responsible for cleaning up his mess.

Answer 8

First of all, I think the exit strategy all along was to leave once victory was achieved. The exit strategy was to support the new, very young, fragile Iraqi government until they could get enough of their own people trained and strong enough to provide for their own security. Unfortunately the Sunnis keep killing people through sectarian violence. This is just another one of the MANY obstacles along the way, which have required us to change tactics along the way. THE EXIT STRATEGY IS AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN 'VICTORY.'

Answer 9

No one could NOT change his mind unless he has no mind.
Occupying other people by force is losing policy in the past and now and has no future.

Answer 10

Pure coincidence, just like the timing for replacing Rumsfeld.
