Beckel, the token liberal on Fox News's Five, said something really dumb last night. He trashed Bush for not using enough troops against Iraq. Really Bob. The force we sent overran the country, seized the capital, and drove Saddam Hussein into hiding, all with in a matter of weeks. That's a crushing victory by anyone's standards. Which means we sent enough soldiers to do the job.
I'll grant that we didn't handle victory as well as we should have, but that's not a matter of boots on the ground, that's a matter of heads up and locked.
