A Virtual Homecoming
Troop Withdrawl Likely to Devastate Tatto Parlors, Brothels
Ok, just kidding. It's probably good that we are bringing home some of our troops from Germany, I mean the cold war is over, but I'm less sure about bringing home troops from Korea, with Dear Leader having the Bomb and all. I seriously doubt that this is troop realignment is political as everyone from John Warner to Carl Levin have endorsed it, but the timing is suspect. With things continuing to be unstable in Iraq, now Bush has a chance to talk about bringing our troops home, problem is its the wrong troops.
And I suspect all this talk about flexible more effecient forces doesn't mean that we'll see any savings in the defense budget.
