And you do know that we need to keep some forces in reserve don't you? That has been standard military policy for thousands of years.
Ed, nothing would make me happier than a fast end to this conflict.

Only now that it's obvious we are too thin on armor to assure rapid victory is Bush sending in the additional forces we should have had in place to begin with.
