I’m beginning to think Congress should impeach him and Cheney both, simply as an act of national salvation. The charge? “You guys aren’t just fucking up our country, you’re fucking up the whole freakin’ world!!”

Good luck with that – next in line after Cheney is Nancy Pelosi.

Doesn’t need a “Plan B”, so long as he controls the narrative. He can establish the required benchmarks, and he can declare those benchmarks wholly fulfilled. Or Congress can define the benchmarks, and he can declare them wholly fulfillied.

If all our people end up grabbing helicopters from the Republic of Greenzonia in a full scale bugout, he will stand there and say “Hey! You wanted a re-deployment! I gave it to you!”

None for me! But you might get some resistance from the Republican side of Congress.

I don’t think Hillary would be too happy either. :wink:

Of course, I may have just been whooshed.

You were.

It was a subtle dig combining Dubya’s love of “Risk” and his general stupidity. Apparently I need to crank down the subtle to appeal to the pobes.

If I submit this for the SDMB Understatement of the Year Award, does it count as one or two?

Boy, is this news going to upset Plan B.

Bush later (next day?) came to the person that correctly stated it was Switzerland and not Sweden with no army
[/QUOTE]
Except that’s wrong, too. They both do. Counting reservists, Switzerland has more soldiers per capita than any other democracy. Odd of Lantos not to know that, if the story is true - maybe he doesn’t have one of those knives. :wink:

After Bush, Forrest Gump would be an improvement as President. Pelosi would look fantastic just by having a clue - which she most certainly does.

I suppose we just have to count ourselves lucky no major diplomatic incident arose from the Swiss refusal to send a carrier group to help out. Or Jamaica a regiment of their crack mountain troops.

Bolivia did, however, send a submarine.*
*Actually that was (mostly) Denmark’s contribution to the Coalition of the, er… hmm… Willing(?).

Ooooh, so tempting!

The Swiss also don’t start unnecessary wars.

I wonder if the Shrub has ever had a Swiss Army Knife?

He still has all his fingers so i’m guessing the answer is ‘no’. :wink:
