Puffhead the magic cleric disappears

Not only do we need to continue reexamining our policies and strategies in Iraq, we must put into place a way to effectively deal with these type of thugs.  When I speak to our troops returning from Iraq, the main complaint is that our troops are so constrained with regard to whom they can pursue and kill.  According to them, we could have been out of there some time ago if they had been free to do that which they have been trained to do.  They say that when the Marines come into town, the bad guys leave because they don’t want that fight.  When they do fight, it isn’t much of a fight.  Here is our new plan:  turn our guys loose to take care of business.

Here is an idea:  Let’s make old puff head here the number one guy upon whom to test a new more aggressive stance in Iraq.
