Bush Receives Report: Gets F

Bush received the The Iraq Study Group Report today, which contained 79 specific recommendations on how not to "Stay the Course." Headed by Republican James Baker, the report said, in essence, everything in Iraq has thus far been a Catastrophuck (What do you get when you mix a hellhole with a Cataclysm? - Thank you John Stewart), and continuing with the president's plan will only lead to disaster. The report proposes things like a timed withdrawal (lacerating and jogging, a very different strategy than cutting and running), but acknowledges that things are so bad there, that the United States can't even consider removing troops until 2008, as well as a substantial increase in troops until then, and embedding American soldiers in the new Iraqi army.

Should the Democrats concede a year before starting troop withdrawals if it will help stabilize a failing nation? It depends, WWNCD?

(What Would Neil Cavuto Do?)

The real question remains: Does Bush care? And the answer seems to be a "Thanks for spending a lot of time of this issue, and thanks to the white house for giving me a copy of the report... It brings some really, very interesting proposals."

So no. But at least we now know he owns a book.

I'd like to add that immediately on amazon.com, some neocons called it "Liberal propaganda." Yes... often bipartisan panels led by Republicans become liberal propaganda. Well, we all know that truth has a liberal bias.
