AP passes along press release: Bush wants to be "moderate", "rejects most dramatic Iraq options"...
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/world/16256285.htm

Does reporter Anne Gearan know that passing along press releases isn't what a reporter's job is???

excerpt:

A look at some of the president's options:

"On the military front, there are various ways to "go big," by adding 10,000 to 20,000 troops to the approximately 135,000 U.S. forces in Iraq. Bush has gotten competing advice about how many troops to add, whether to define their mission as temporary or long term and whether to add troops at all."

OK, people, THIS STORY IS NOT A COMMENTARY - THIS IS THE *NEWS*....

So you see, the choice is "how big and how to GO bigger"...
