Congress Criters are stupid

I was struck by the utter stupidity evoked in this newsmax article.

WASHINGTON -- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice declined on Wednesday to rule out American forces still being needed in Iraq a decade from now. Senators warned that the Bush administration must play it straight with the public or risk losing public support for the war.


Ok... How long did it take to "occupy" Germany and Japan to get their countries back on track.
More importantly how long did it take out troops to leave their countries....oh wait they are still there.
And South Korea.... hey Wait we are still there to.

This question truely i find insulting to the intelligence of the American people.

Go through the History of prior US occupations of areas that were -NOT- Us territories.

10 years would be on the higher end but given the problems not at all unprecidented. What is Unprecidented is our troops will be there after a stable government is formed.

A bunch of pandering to the voters.... and this is I think the President's fault to ( and I will explain my thesis later)
