It's outrageous: after the voters, the generals, and the Iraq Study Group
all told the President to lead us out of Iraq, he is planning an escalation and will send more troops as soon as this month.
Congress can block an escalation but it is uncertain if they will. They need to hear from us immediately and loudly. We owe it to our troops -- and the Iraqis -- whose lives are on the line.
Already Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Harry Reid are.... saying they oppose escalation. But Republicans and some Democrats are considering rubber-stamping Bush's escalation plan.
Now we need to back Pelosi and Reid up -- pushing Democrats to unify and splitting Republicans away from Bush.
