Top Washington Leaders Call for Pullout.

June 16th, 1944.

Many leaders in Washington are demanding a pullout of American troops from France, citing examples of how badly the war is going. The situation has been described as a quagmire, unwinable, and many are questioning why American troops were sent into France in the first place. Further, the attack on England a few days ago by a cruise missile shows that the French don't want us in their country. In fact, many of the French are working for the Germans. They must want the Germans there. It's their way of life.

Every hedgerow is a killing field, making progress imposible. We have failed to make it even as far as as Cherbourg. We have failed to make it to Caen. We can never make it to Paris.

We've broken into France, now it's up to the French to kick the Germans out. As American casualties climb, it is more and more a reminder that we have to pull out.
Pull out, pull out, pull out, for God's sake pull out! We can't win! President Roosevelt's policies for France have failed and we need to rethink... pull out... can't win... Americans dying... can't win... quagmire... policies failed...

62 years later...
Pull out, pull out, pull out, for God's sake pull out! We can't win!
SHUT UP! This last week has been HUGE for free people in Iraq and DEVASTATING for the terrorist forces. We have broken Al-Qaeda in Iraq's (AQiI from here on out) leadership, gathered large ammounts of paper inteligence generated by Al-Qaeda at Large, killed a few hundred terrorists, and captured almost a thousand more. AQiI is complaining that they are ineffective, that they are failing. They are lamenting their poor communication and many in their ranks are now saying that their cause is lost.

You can't plan events like this. You can only work toward them with constant effort. The U.S. House seems to get it, at least. Others are not as in-touch: there is an American congressman (his name escapes me... I'm sleep deprived) who described the total... TOTAL accomplishments of the American and free Iraqi troops as 'not much'. Nancy Pelosi says that the Iraq policy has failed...

Well, if this is 'not much' and a 'failed' policy, I want to see even less! I want to see dismal failure in all policies! It's the third quarter and we're ahead by, oh, about 50 points. Yeah, let's throw the game: we can't win.
