Exit Strategy
I rarely write about politics here, but this is relatively good news.
John Murtha's letter is an actual plan for what we should do in Iraq. I've grown tired of reading about Iraq because I know the war is wrong and almost everyone else does.
But this is a plan. Very few against the war -- including myself -- have offered intelligent alternatives to the war in Iraq.
I haven't read the plan, but I don't have to. Even if he says we should fill plastic soda bottles with mustard and put them in microwaves (as opposed to toaster ovens) I still admire the fact that he's telling us what to do as well as what not to do. I wish everyone in the blogosphere would write up exit strategies for the war.
My exit strategy: move the battlefield to the sea. These terrorists are desert people and will drink up the water, drowning in the process (I am an Arab-American -- I can make this plan).
