The Plan

by digby

According to the NY Times some Republicans have a whole new approach to Iraq:

President Bush isn’t getting our frustrations — it’s time to be decisive, beat the terrorists,” Mike McGavick, the Republican candidate for Senate in Washington, said in an advertisement that began running this week. “Partition the country if we have to and get our troops home in victory.”


Good thinking. We need to beat those damned terrorists, partition the country whether the Iraqis like it or not, win and come on home. Why hasn't anyone thought of this before? Let's roll!

Update: I'm reminded by commenter Straight Talk express that there is another even more sophisticated GOP plan out there, proposed by presumptive GOP presidential candidate St. John McCain:

"one of the things I would do if I were president would be to sit the shiites and the sunnis down and say, 'stop the bullshit.'"


These Republicans are all deep, deep thinkers.
