US running out of ground troops in Iraq

And the results are predictable, peppered with ugly failures. The Pentagon PR folks love talking about surgical strikes but fighting a war from the air instead of the ground always brings cases like this latest story where a family of 14 is killed. No, there's no shortage of ground troops in Iraq at all, even though the US is going to the air more and even using Air Force troops on the ground. Nope, no problem at all. Everything is going well because Bush tells us so.
