W's Surge to Lose

What is with the US media the way they accept W's calling the escalation in troops to Iraq a "surge" and their suggesting that it is only temporary. What a pile of bull!

Did anyone anywhere ever think that Bush would do anything other than increase the number of troops in Iraq. Not a chance. I would've bet the farm.

Did you see the Houston Chronicle today? It was great, congressmen and a female US senator were all shifting around trying to say something of substance without out offending the American public. Several Ds were working hard to appear to support the war, while nearly all Rs suggested that they supported the president but were worried about the war going wrong.
