I find it interesting that eight Arab states support the President’s troop increase more that politicians here at home . . .
USA Today: Troop increase gains support of 8 Arab states
*** Update *** (01.18.07)
Fellow Texan Silvestre Reyes (the new chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence) was quoted as saying that he was for an increase of 20,000 to 30,000 troops in Iraq in the December 5th issue of Newsweek.
What a difference a month makes.
Soon after the President announced his proposed plan of a 21,500 increase, the Democrat from west Texas told the El Paso Times that a troop increase of that size was unthinkable.
Sounds like he was taking a page out of Kerry's play book, saying he was for it before he was against it.
