Kevin Ryan, a retired general, argues that the bills passed by the House and Senate to withdraw our troops from Iraq really will do nothing of the sort.
First, the bills allow the president to waive restrictions against deployment in the cause of 'national security'. Isn't national security Bush's mantra?
The bills also allow troops to stay there to protect our citizens and facilities, to fight international terrorism and to train Iraqi security forces. Ryan estimates that it will take as many troops to accomplish these three tasks as are there now.
I haven't read the bills. It sounds as though Ryan has. If his reading is correct, it's all just more b.s. from our leaders.
