Escalation News
Swopa gives a good update on the plan to escalate the war in Iraq.

Two notable points. First, it looks like it will take months, maybe as long as five months, for any increase in troops to actually occur. Second, since Bush is implementing St. John's call for an increase of 20,000 troops, St. John has to now move the goalposts. He's now calling for 30,000 over 18 months to protect his "if I was Preznit, I would have won the war" campaign.
