Well what the hell did you expect - an increase in troop strength?
German Town Wary of U.S. Troop PulloutI guess screaming Bush is Hitler (auf Deutch) is another way of saying 'Sure, take your troops out!! See if we really care!!'KITZINGEN, Germany - Hans Seitz has sold engraved pewter plates and cuckoo clocks to U.S. soldiers for years. Now he fears some of his best customers may be going if two U.S. divisions pull out of Germany.
Seitz was one of many Germans — all the way up to Defense Minister Peter Struck — who expressed regret Tuesday at the prospect that the United States will withdraw a large share of its 70,000 troops from Germany under plans announced by President Bush.
[...]
Seitz is not alone. Across southern Germany, about two dozen towns and cities with major U.S. military bases face similar economic fears, though the Americans will leave only gradually.
Payback sucks and you're getting a big, steaming bowl of it Germany, so eat up.

Hat Tip to Bush if he actually gets it done.

I hope Bush puts them at the borders and doing airline security checks.
I remember traveling to Guatemala when I was in 8th grade. I was afeared of those soldiers and I hadn't done anything wrong...

|| Posted by Rob, August 19, 2004 08:39 AM ||The Democrats have been trying to do this for a long time now. Bush I reduced the number significantly but stopped at around 100,000. Clinton argued to bring the rest of them home from Europe, but, after further reducing the number he raised it again to just over 100,000 with all the crap in Kosovo et al.
It's interesting to see this idea being used to reduce the greatest country in the world to "naa, na naa, na naa, naaa".
Wonderful. I know I'm proud. Pitiful.

You guys need to play on the same page once in a while.
If Bush raises troop strength in Iraq, the dems holler quagmire, if he brings them home, he's accussed of being irresponsible and reckless. As to giving the Germans a naaah naaaah...
I will sleep just fine having annoyed Germany, they've been offending me since they dumped Khol. They want something for nothing. So if they are so damned rich and talented, they can damn well police their own borders without us.
We needn't apologize for that.

Times have changed, that's why Kerry has denounced it. (I'm taking your word for that, haven't read anything from Kerry about it yet.) It's obvious tho when you think the republicans, except for Bush I have been for keeping troop strength up globally. Kerry's point I would imagine, is that by withdrawing troops, now the signal is sent around the world that the US is withdrawing, literally, behind it's own borders. Basically a big fuck you to the rest of the world. Not a good idea when we need their help in this global 'war on terrorism', unless you wouldn't mind Germany not investigating terrorists? I can see it now, next we'll be looking for a Schröder bin Laden connection...
