1. Actually, its not working..
My brother n law was on convoy... they were going thru an area known as "Dirty Tampa" (this was just this last week). Anyway, a 7 hr stretch took 12. They didn't have enough gas in the re-fueling trucks... and on top of that they were taking hits from all sides.. then they hit those IED's, but it was a chain of them.. so l goes off and a series goes off from there... 4 ended up going off thru another stretch.. and then one of the trucks went off the road because the driver fell asleep. All this while they were "training" the new guys to take over.

Like my sis said, "how exactly has this surge worked".. yeah they didn't die, thank God, but it was one of the worst times thru this stretch. So, once again, all lies... brought to you by corporate media.

2. The same people along with the MSM who pushed us to invade Iraq based on lies
Are THEY proud of themseleves that they are responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of people based on a lie?

Where will they be when a few years down the road it will be realized that we cannot occupy Iraq, and all the death and destruction accomplished NOTHING

There should be a special place in hell for those who know the truth and still continue the lies

3. We'll know if it worked or not when they get the hell out of there.
Until then it's all bluster.

5. Wasn't Jacobs one of the paid flaks for this fiasco in the first place?
Why on earth these clowns have any credibility to warrant airtime is mystifying...
unless, of course, we follow the money trail.
