As to Kasserine pass, it was Eisenhower's responsiblity (he was the theater commander) and he was not canned. Bush has put in a new theater commander and the guy hasn't event got all his troops off the boats.

Nice try. But the Kasserine Pass is one of the great historical examples of learning from your mistakes, and the so-called surge, actually a return to pre-election troop levels, is, and from the beginning has been, a PR device and a joke.
We need a reality-based President.
And the troops are indeed off the boat - have you been relying on the White House for your facts again? I love the idea that it takes almost six months to deploy 28,000 troops - everyone seems to have taken the slow boat.
