It's OK, I had a shower afterwards
On a weekly routine of 'know thy enemy', I went to Drudge, and there is some good news re:Kerry on Iraq, and good news from Britain (THE UK FINALLY STARTED LISTENING TO IT'S PEOPLE!!!)

1. What tha--How did UK get down to 8000 troops?
At one time the UK had 45,000 deployed to the gulf

--I thought that they were the one, true, reliable ally all agreed on this glorious mission, and yet the UK has alread let 37,000 of the 45,000 come home. Sombody do the math and see that we haven't lowered our troop strength one man from the invasion, and in fact, will probably have to increase it since our "allys" have already bugged out.

The "grand coalition" started out as a coalition of two and is now a coalition of one. Thanks, Bush. Thanks for screwing it up royally.
