Retired General: Bush Should Sign Bill

Debunking the theory that the military exclusively sides with the President on the Iraq fight, Retired General William Odom, Army Chief of Stafff for intelligence and Director of the National Security Agency under President Ronald Reagan implored the President to sign the funding bill past by Congress.

Odom, despite not belonging to either political party, gave the weekly Democratic address today;

"The challenge we face today is not how to win in Iraq; it is how to recover from a strategic mistake: invading Iraq in the first place. The president has let (the Iraq war) proceed on automatic pilot, making no corrections in the face of accumulating evidence that his strategy is failing and cannot be rescued. He lets the United States fly further and further into trouble, squandering its influence, money and blood, facilitating the gains of our enemies."


Odom also said the President handed Iran and Al-Qaeda a great victory upon invading Iraq, which is all I've been saying in the first place.
