If there will be no support or passing of the Webb-Hagel troop readiness amendment then we all should propose a new amendment call for the deployment of all troops that have not been in Iraq...
Let's start with requiring the Commander in Chief to go and stay in Iraq until this mess is cleaned up. He has spent precious little time in country. He too, needs to do his part.
Let's keep him away from his family for 9, 10 or 15 months.
When he gets close to returning, let's just add a couple months.
Let's require that his wife worry every day about his health and welfare.
Have his daughters make cookies that turn to dust by the time they get to him.
Let his daughter get married while he is out of the country.
Have him use the same equipment he has approved for regular soldiers.
Make sure that he works with contractors who make two, three, or four times as much as he....and can leave at any time.
Maybe then he can better understand the need for a better rotation....just a thought...
