We, the ones who have family members in the Sand, are the only ones who really worry, who hurt. The rest of the country seems to look at the war and shake their little heads, then go back to watching Lohan or Paris Hilton. Spike, surge, increase... whatever you call it, it's insane, and since I don't see a Bush or a cheney or a Rumsfeld in uniform, they don't really give a damn about us.

And how exactly are these areas going to become more "secure" and reduce casualties? Everytime we secure an area, another area becomes a danger zone. It's rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

The quote you cited does say within six months the areas where the surge is will see a drop in causalities...but, importantly stresses that other area in Iraq may see a surge in casualties. That part is not even heard... What can you say? I too know not what to say to the right wing bloggers who insist the war against the insurgency is still winnable.
