Article in question: http://www.washingtonpost.com/...AR2007071601680_2.html
Given that the administration was completely wrong about WMD's, about Al Quaeda/Saddam relationship to 9/11, about the troop levels needed to secure Iraq (300k like General shinseki said), about 'greeted as liberators' and 'flowers and candy', about "mission accomplished", about "insurgency in it's last throes", etc. etc. ad infinitum, don't you think it would be time to NOT listen to Bush when he predicts doom and gloom about an Iraqi pullout while at the same time the Military counters by saying that a pullout which would result in Al Quaeda taking over Iraq is unlikely AND Iran would get bogged down by the Shi'ite infighting.
If Bush is wrong on almost EVERYTHING while the military is RIGHT, shouldn't we start listening to the military instead of Bush?
