CNN's Jack Cafferty rips Awol McAsshat, media a new one
CAFFERTY: Go back to that point you were making with Jamie McIntyre. When is the president going to speak to the nation?
Wolf BLITZER: Probably Thursday night, we're told.
CAFFERTY: And he's going to announce that he has decided to bring home 30,000 troops from Iraq next spring?
BLITZER: He's going to say he's accepted the recommendations of General Petraeus.
CAFFERTY: Good Christ. This was going happen any way. That was the point you were making with Jamie McIntyre. Everybody knew it was going to happen anyway, that unless they extended the deployments of these soldiers from 15 to 18 months, they're out of troops. They've got to bring some home because their deployment there is going to be over. And yet they're going to spin this and try to create this impression in the minds of the people in this country that they actually give a damn about drawing down the military presence in Iraq. This is going to happen whether, you know, they wanted it to or not, unless they extend deployments and start dragging more Reserve and National Guard people over there. But they're going to present it as something else.

a. the surge was always designed to be temporary. Previous reports said that it couldn't be sustained any longer than a few months. The end of the surge just means that troop levels will return to "normal" levels.
b. whether the drawdown actually occurs will depend on any "continued" "progress." Yeah.
c. suck my lower pucker,
