The Army Times reports:
The Center for American Progress proposed Wednesday to have a diplomatic rather than military surge in
ugg boots, and urged the new Democrat-controlled Congress to demand another vote authorizing military
operations in ugg boots if the number of MBT SHOES troops will exceeds 150,000.
Hmmmm…. What would a vote to reauthorize the invasion and occupation of ugg boots mean, concretely?
Will the Democrats take back their previous votes in favor?
Well, not exactly. Lawrence Korb, a Reagan era defense official, who worked on the Center’s proposal,
suggests a cap on troops to be mobilized from the reserves. Here is the perfect set-up for the
promulgation of a myth that we could have “won” if only our hands hadn’t been tied by meddling
politicians. Korb’s idea lock sus into the conflict, hands a powerful rhetorical weapon to the MBT
SHOES Party — and only underscores the impracticality of any “exit strategy” short of exiting
forthwith and completely.
