Umm so we are sending more troops into Iraq???
I was having a discussion with someone about President Bush's speech. Normally he is so completely composed, and you he has this confident look on his monkey face. But during the speech, it was completely different.
He just didn't seem as sure of himself. And why could that be? Because he's trying out options that aren't necessarily the best, (in my opinion.) Before this decision can be made, there needs to be a lot more thought that goes into it, and he needs to consult more individuals in our government.
Two republicans spoke out against it, and I'm sure there is a long list of democrats that are protesting the whole thing.
People just keep dying, but are we really accomplishing our goal? Are we asserting ourselves as a country in power? Is this truly necessary?
I know that sometimes war needs to happen, but this one it all doesn't completely add up.
This one person in my Persuasive Speaking class is doing her quarter project on why we shouldn't be in Iraq. I don't have a personal connection to anyone in Iraq, but her brother is over there so of course she is a lot more emotionally invested.
I know being the President of the United States is difficult, and G.W. can't be absolutely perfect, but is this sort of decision the best thing for our country? I say...no.
