I love doing a good job, regardless of whether I do or not:
In long-awaited testimony, the commanding general of the war said last winter's buildup in U.S. troops had met its military objectives "in large measure." As a result, he told a congressional hearing and a nationwide television audience, "I believe that we will be able to reduce our forces to the pre-surge level ... by next summer without jeopardizing the security gains we have fought so hard to achieve."Would that be these gains?
Petraeus is right about one thing though: the surge accomplished its objective, which was another PR move/kabuki/punt by Bush to keep the very serious people who guard our discourse confused and in awe. Great success!!!
