Casey Should Go
Every time the President or Congress declares victory as our goal in Iraq, here comes General Casey seeming to agree with the cut and run crowd:
Speculation is rampant following Casey's visit that he will call for a reduction of two combat brigades, about 7,000 troops, to be removed from Iraq in September. The New York Times also reported that Casey has drafted a plan that projects five or six combat brigades will remain in Iraq from the current level of 14 by the end of 2007. That's a reduction of about 28,000 troops. Currently, 127,000 U.S. troops are deployed in Iraq.
Reading the article, its clear the President and Tony Snow are making great efforts to gloss over Casey's big mouth. He should be promoted up to a desk job and away from the anti-American press.
