The Problem

What is obvious to everyone in the reality-based community by now is that the primary problem is not that Bush and the neo-cons got us into this war under false pretenses, it's that George W. Bush absolutely, positively has no plan for winning anything in Iraq, either with the force we have in-country now, or with any additional force he may finagle to add in the future. Where is the plan? What are the strategic goals that you can create a tactical plan around?

We can (and we can't) send a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand additional troops into Iraq, but Bush has no idea what to do with them when they get there (and they won't). McCain's embrace of a "surge" of troops is a cynical, political posture that plays to the remaining wingnuts who are still fantasizing a noble victory.

Get this - George W. Bush and every crackpot on his payroll lost this war the second they decided to 1. wage it and 2. send a minimal amount of troops to secure the country after they went in.

It is also evident that nothing will be done to end (impeachment and removal from office) his mismanagement of this war until it gets a whole lot worse. And that is a future I am dreading.
