As the AP puts it “President Bush will tell the nation this week he plans to reduce the American troop presence in Iraq by as many as 30,000 by next summer, but will condition those and further cuts on continued progress…”

Excuse me if I don’t believe that. The AP got a “scoop” from another anonymous admin PR flack that we might reduce troop numbers if “progress” continues. What progress? The progress they invented? The progress that is just enough to keep us in Iraq, but not enough for us to leave? Again, why are we still there? The Iraqis wants us to leave. 2/3 of americans want us to leave. And we aren’t even making any progress. At what point will this White House get tired of lying to us? When will the media stop reprinting this crap?
