CUT AND RUM DEPT. UP-DATE

Some things are true even if Donald Rumsfeld
says they are.  For example his claim that a surge in troops would provide
no substantial change or dividend we regretfully conclude is correct.  Of
course what will result, sadly, is more American casualties.  We wonder
did any of this administration ever heft, lift or even touch a full body
bag.  And by the way, as of 1/11/07 a number of folks in the Iraqi
government have announced that they don’t want more troops.
