So the full "surge" isn't happeing until August????

Just heard this on Washington Journal. I thought we were surging now?

Is there someone out there who's onto this BS and has something to say about it?

1. How can you tell they're lying?

And in August, they'll have another "surge", and then another and another until the Congress finally puts a stop to it.

2. Well It Only Makes Sense - If * Wants To Have A Perpetual War....

he'll have to have a perpetual 'surge'.

Cause remember - the 'surge' was the last chance - if it didn't work - we'd think about pulling out.

3. I think the official "surge" will be happening

immediately following whichever upcoming month shows a decrease in U.S. soldiers killed.

5. That's our base's next major deployment

I think pretty much the whole 10th mountain will be gone from here by then. Troops have told me that they were trying to eventually make it so the whole division deploys at once, comes home at once, instead of a brigade here, platoon there. most of these guys won't have been back but 7-8 months when they go back.
