Bush to Escalate Iraq War
George Bush tonight announced his intention to send more troops to Iraq, against the clear wishes of the majority of the American people, the Congress, and even his own generals.
Bush intends to send an additional 21,500 troops to Iraq at the costs of billions. However, at this time, according to a recent Gallop poll, 61% of the public oppose the planned “surge”.
It is not clear what, if anything, Congress can do to stop the escalation. Congress controls the budget, but to eliminate funding might just result in reduction of equipment and protection for the men and women in Iraq. He might also reduce necessary expenses in the US, such as support for military families.
A showdown between Congress and the President is not likely. We will see what happens over the coming weeks.
