Bush freezes troop withdrawls.

Just more of the same from that retarded cowboy icehole.

On a positive note, they reduced deployments back to only 12 months as of August 1. Unfortunately for me that doesn't help the guys that are already here, we still have to finish out our full deployment.

I will say this the addition of troops has helped Mosul, the last 3 weeks we have seen a drastic drop in violence. Much of that is due to the fact they are attacking IA and IPs.

It really sucks for doods who are deploying in late July. They still pull 15 months.

That all depends what there orders say, it is definately a fine line though.

What I've read is pretty clear...Aug. 1 or later deploy date...12 months.

Anything prior, 15

Well that is not exactly how it works. Plus even my orders say a deployment of up to 455 days, there is a good chance we won't be here all 15 months. I of course am not holding my breath, I do know the unit we relieved was supposed to do 15 but it ended up being 13. Also July is not a big month for deployments.

51 this month, by far the highest toll since September of 2007

we are wrecking shop in sadr city and its probably days before the clerk calls off his cease fire which means death totals will start shooting up again and its why they kind of already are...i feel so bad for the soldiers over there....the end game is there is no end game...

I read today that Bush just earned the lowest approval ratings of any modern president.

I don't understand this, because it was only five years ago, today, that he demonstrated how much of a war hero he was (unlike phonies like John Kerry, of course)...
