Once again this shithead is going to say one thing and more than likely do another. First General Casey would decide if we need more troops in Iraq and now that is not going to happen.

I've spent a lot of time talking to him about troop levels. And I've told him this: I said, 'You decide, General.' That was Mr. Bush at a Chicago news conference in July.
Yesterday at a news conference at the White House, Bush pretty much said that he will not let necessarily let the military decide.
Mr. Bush,"The opinion of my commanders is very important. They are bright, capable, smart people whose opinion matters to me a lot." He also said, "I agree with them that there's got to be a specific mission that can be accomplished with the addition of more troops before I agree on that strategy."
An aide told The Washington Post that Bush will not let the military decide the matter. More Here
