Carl Levin, Snake in the Grass

If there is one thing we can all agree on when it comes to Iraq, it's that the old plan of our troops training Iraqi troops and letting them do the fighting does not work because of loyalty issues. This is why General David Petraeus, whom Senate Dems in the Armed Services Committee unanimously approved, wants to embed American soldiers in Iraqi units. It's also why Carl Levin, chairman of this committee, "slithered" onto Meet the Depressed over the weekend to declare Dems' intentions to limit our troops to "a supporting role rather than a combat role in Iraq" — otherwise, the USA might win, which would be unacceptable to Democrats and to the fifth-column media that props them up.
Levin also declared that Dems can cap the number of troops. It's becoming clear why the Founding Fathers did not give the legislative branch authority over how war is waged.
