Bush is Going to Keep Troops in Iraq

Yes, he says that he he is open to the possibility of slowing or stopping plans to bring home more U.S. troops from Iraq, which means that he's not going to bring them home.

He'll make some announcements, but when the tire hits the road, they won't be redeployed.

Why, because George W. Bush thinks that all that matters is "victory", which he defines as staying in Iraq, no matter how many terrorists are created, or how many troops are lost, or how many unstable nations move toward nuclear weapons.

It's all about him, and he needs to show that he's "brave and resolute" with other people's lives and other people's money.
