Does anyone really believe this will make a difference?

How many respectable experts have we seen dismissed as unreliable and untrustworthy by the Bush administration and the talking heads that support them? Richard Clark come to mind? Tucker Carlson has already framed this argument. First of all these soldiers shouldn't even be commenting and secondly, they have a limited understanding of what's going on and can't see the big picture. I of course disagree with this. This should be the final straw of any Americans supporting this ill conceived war, but it won't be. Bush who has stubbornly maintained that we should listen to those on the ground, will surely do a quick about face and agree that these soldiers can't see the forest for the trees. He may lose some support when he ultimately insults these soldiers, but I have no doubt his flock will continue to follow him.
