Einstein said it:

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”


Hey here's a question...Can anybody here tell me exactly what they plan to do with the extra troops? What's different this time? All I hear is "Surge" and no plan. Kinda like the same insanity that got us in this situation in the first place.

Now ask yourself if the situation would be handled differently if the Bush twins were in uniform and stationed in Iraq?


Via Atrios:

Imus: "Well, anyway, what happens when it doesn't work?"

Sen. Joe Lieberman:

"Yeah, well, you know, we will then look at the situation and decide what we can
do, and the alternatives are limited here. The other alternatives–the main
alternative that the opponents of what the President has done are offering is to
simply begin to withdraw. And the theory there is that somehow if you with– I
mean some people want to withdraw because they just want to get out. They think
the thing–They want to give up. They think the thing is not winnable. I'm afraid
they don't agree with me that the consequences of pulling out would be a
disaster for everybody, including most important, us. But some say if you begin
to withdraw, then Maliki and the other Iraqis will say 'Oh, my God, they're
leaving. We got to get our act together. I don't think so. I think what is more
likely is that the Iraqi politicians will begin to hedge their bets, and the
militias and the Al Qaeda terrorists will just hold back until the day we're
gone, and then chaos will break out, and unfortunately as McCain says, we'll
probably be back there in a larger war, you know, two, three, four, five years
from now. I think this is our chance, so I'd guess I'd say to you in war–There's
a famous old saying that war is a series of catastrophes that ends up in victory
for one side, and right now I'd say this plan is the best next step we've got.
Let's hope it works, pray it works, and if it doesn't, then we'll figure out
what we're gonna do then."

Now ask yourself this question...They don't have a plan for the troops when they get there and they don't have a plan for the next step is the surge doesn't work. .. What the Hell are they doing?
