Brent Budowsky: Rush Is Wrong

Rush Is Wrong

As much as I enormously respect Lawrence O'Donnell I disagree with his view that Rush is right and warn Democrats to not not buy into the war policy, or the abuse of language, logic and partisanship that has always surrounded it.

Here is what Bush wants: 35,000 more troops for a two year war esclation, postponing the final crash until the next

~snip~

Lets get this straight: escalating the disastrous mistakes of this war is not victory; opposing this esclation is not surrender. Period. Bush is wrong, Rush is wrong, the New York Post is wrong, the escalation is wrong, the two year war plan is wrong, and Democrats are wrong if they believe that Rush is right.

Lets get this straight: the only surrender was when Bush surrendered at Tora Bora and let Osama Bin Laden escape.

Even the political analysis is wrong: in fact this two year war escalation that is being privately and now publicly pushed is not only mistaken military policy, it will divide and and could well doom the Republican Party which run as the Iraq war party, again, in 2008.

1. far too fucking late

the need for these troops was after the iraq defenses crumbled to PREVENT INSTABILITY.
now it's just more indians to kill.
all the troops are doind is chasing their tails. UNLESS, they actually achieve security for iraqqis. and 35,000 ain't enough.
