REPUBLICANS CONSOLIDATE...

It seemed like President George W. Bush was coming to his senses when it was announced that a portion of the U.S. troops were going to be pulled out of Iraq. In reality, what it means is he is making the stage less messy for -- and we are using a very big 'IF' here -- if his fellow Republican John McCain becomes the next U.S. President. The aim is to keep the political power base in Republican hands.

With this cosmetic pull out from Iraq, Bush is cleaning his house for McCain. It might seem like a noble gesture -- but underneath it, the U.S. still attacked a sovereign nation (Iraq) when it invaded that middle east country. (That's why America's noise over Russia attacking Georgie which the U.S. tagged as an attack on a sovereign nation rings hollow.)
