Casey to Take the Blame for Iraq

The New York Times ran this article Chaos Overran Iraq Plan in ’06, Bush Team Says. Josh Marshall sums it up as Casey will be taking the fall.

The quote that resonated with me was Bush telling the commanders: "What I want to hear from you is how we’re going to win, not how we’re going to leave." This just shows me he's clueless. Repeat after me, there isn't a military solution, you need a political one. If it's not clear, you need politicians and diplomats to get a political solution, not soldiers (they get military solutions which as we said there isn't one). Ugh.
