CITIZEN ALERT v1.244
WHAT'S HE UP TO?

Well, a lot is being said this week about what to do with the Bush admin and what to do in Iraq. The National Intelligence Estimate has come out with a new report as Bush's surge is still not working but in the background as reported this weekend, the Airforce is "quietly" building up its numbers in Iraq and increasing bombing runs.

I really need a weekend to go over all this and then regenerate it back into a CITIZEN ALERT for you guys to digest, but here's a quick version. For those up to speed, I don't mean that you wouldn't get it unless I told you, just keep in mind that I do CITIZEN ALERT for younger America - younger Bobot Adrenaline fans - who don't keep up with global politics as much but want to learn or just want to know what everyone is talking about on the news from time to time. About 50% of CA is aimed at them.

So, what is Bush up to? The big teacher parent meeting is coming up in September where the Congress unless they cut it off now, will take a look at how his surge worked or didn't and decide whether to give him anymore money to continue the war in Iraq. The House controls the budget; they can stop the war in second if they had the guts to do it.

Bush is 1) having another group come up with a separate report that leans more in his favor which I'm sure he'll be waving in the air. This is basically like turning your F into a B on your report card with a pencil. 2) The Airforce is increasing in Iraq - more bombing runs. The US is very effective when we launch an air campaign. We don't do it all the way all the time because of a couple reason, one being civilian casualties, the other intelligence. But again, the bombings have increased and I see this as either a) Bush sort of cheating the numbers on his surge or b) he's planning ahead to a perimeter campaign because he knows the money is getting cut off.

Let's watch and see this week if the DEMS can remember why we elected them in the first place.
