Re: OT: US Pres election
There is a way to win this war, but the way we are doing it isn't working. Bush's strategy is keep throwing wave after wave "surges" of men at the problem until its fixed.
The way we need to win this war is by establishing power grids, running water, basic services and what not. You don't win an occupation by occupying the enemy's territory, you win it by keeping your enemy occupied. We should've organized companies in Iraq to hire iraqis to do the reconstruction and pay them a fair wage instead of outsourcing everything and building what we wanted only and paying 1000% over top-bid.
It goes back to an old saying in the West. Whiskey for drink'n, water for fight'n.
