Hmm. From http://www.buzzflash.com/articles/alerts/153 and elsewhere I get the impression that George W. Bush is planning to purposely drive up the rates of wounded and dead and taunt us with the word ‘sacrifice’, double-daring us to stop him.
Of course the speech-writer will see it differently, and the AEI fools who devise Bush’s plan aren’t doing it to taunt us, but no one made Bush ignore the election results, ignore Baker-Hamilton, etc., and instead go with a stupid AEI plan.
I say it jocularly but I’m serious. I think it well within the likely that Bush is going to drive up our casualty rates as a gesture of defiance.
