Iraqi violence down

[queequeger]

Now think how well we'd do if we had enough troops in Iraq... say 300k? It never ceases to amaze me, more troops = less violence. Bill Maher said it perfectly 'it's like daddy stops hitting mommy when the police are on the front porch. Of course the surge 'works.' Now if we had enough to secure the entire country instead of just Baghdad, maybe it would make a lasting difference at all.
