It's about time.

Well, it's nice to hear that generals under President Johnson--I mean Bush--are saying that there is a chance we'll be reducing forces in Viet Nam--I mean Iraq--some time in the next two years. After all, US commanders have said things like ""We have reached an important point, when the end begins to come into view," and "Their casualties are going up at a rate they cannot sustain ... I see light at the end of the tunnel." It's not like any US general has ever said anything like that before in a conflict that was fumbled by politicians from the start. It's not like there has ever been any war wherein the US fighting personnel on the ground were hampered and hindered by administrative bungling, poor logistical support, and rear-echelon politicians who put their domestic agendas ahead of any thought of doing what was necessary to really get the job done and get it done conclusively. It's not like any other president from Texas ever betrayed the US military on the ground in self-serving attempts to score points with their home team supporters. Right? It's not like this has ever happened before.
