Gen David Patraeus

The expectations for General Petraeus to be able to turn this thing around are so high that they love him now, but they'll burn him in effigy if he fails to live up to their expectations. I applaude his plan to move the troops out of the FOBs and into patrol bases among the populace - it's pure FID - but they'll be more casaulties. Dems hate casualties in a war.

The first thing I learned in the SFQC is that I'd rather be a guerilla than have to fight one.
