even Oliver North is turning against bush!

Oliver North Says Nearly All U.S. Troops In Iraq Oppose Escalation

Last night on the O’Reilly Factor, former Col. Oliver North — now a conservative military analyst for Fox News — said that on his recent trip to Baghdad he learned that “nearly all” U.S. troops opposed escalating the war in Iraq. They told North, “We don’t need more American troops; we need more Iraqi troops.”

North added that Bush’s proposal “sounds eerily like Lyndon Johnson’s plan to save Vietnam in the 60s by gradual escalation as a way not to lose.”

We know that nothing can change bush's mind and that he will "stay the course" no matter what, but maybe now that there is some oversight, he can be stopped.
