Live Vote -- Do you agree to add troops in Iraq?

Do you agree with President Bush's plan to add 21,500 troops to those now in Iraq?

Yes. The United States can still win this thing militarily; a sizable increase in troop strength, and help from the Iraqis, will turn the tide

No. Define "win." After nearly four years, neither our country nor Iraq is better off. More troops going out means more body bags coming back.

The Bush Administration’s aims when it invaded Iraq in March 2003 were to bring it democracy and transform the Middle East.

Instead, Iraq has reverted to its three constituent components: a pro-western Kurdistan, an Iran-dominated Shiite theocracy in the south, and a chaotic Sunni Arab region in the center.

<Hagel told Rice, “Madame secretary, Iraqis are killing Iraqis. We are in a civil war. This is sectarian violence out of control.”

She disputed that Iraq was in the throes of a civil war. To that, Hagel said, “To sit there and say that, that’s just not true.”>

The bitch couldn't do the Ali shuffle fast enough. Good thing she had on her dancing shoes once again.

Pass a non-binding resolution? That's the best these pols can come up with after voters CLEARLY voiced their disapproval of The Decider's immoral activity in Iraq - based initially on a LIE???
DC pols should begin to show they have a backbone for a change and refuse to supply the money for this add-on tragedy - NO MONEY!!! Lofty pronouncements of disagreement with The Decider's Iraq "policy" doesn't cut it anymore.
