Dear Beloved Leader, Preznit Ima Loser is going to go to NATO to ask for more troops. Yeah, would that be from, ummmm, "Old Europe" or the bright and shiny new one that exists in NeoCon Fables?
President Bush will ask NATO for fresh troops for the fight in Afghanistan and fewer restrictions on how they can be used when he sits down this week with alliance leaders to review the state of the dangerous mission there, according to senior U.S. officials.
I suspect that the only reason the "principal" ie. leaders of the countries involved are even giving him a chance to speak is because he's Our Preznit. No way any of them want to be seen actually helping this buffoon, even when there might be a justifiable reason. It's a political liability for them going forward ("My opponent is a toady for the Americans ... (meaning Bunnypants) ... he can't be trusted with our future") that the smarter of them don't want to have around their necks next time they face their electorate. (See: Spain, Italy and coming to a theatre near you... Tony the Poodle)
Yeah, I can so feel the luuuuv at the NATO summit. From here.
