I agree. Which is why you would have to have a draft if a troop surge was to do anything (and even then it could be a huge failure). Bush has put us into quite the predicament here.
I just find it odd that people claim this moment will define our future, and then they say "let's solve it with 10,000 troops." If you believe it will define our future, you had better come with something stronger than that.
