As the day comes closer for President Bush to make his decision on weather or not to increase troop levels in Iraq, he has appointed new people as his top military, diplomatic and intelligence advisors. This follows the replacing Secretary of Defense Rumsfled after the elections last year. The much feared decision by Congress is a plan to increase troop levels by 9,000 alone in Bagdad. From the very beginning Bush has been adamant about "accomplishing" the mission. Bush hopes to reach his final decision with the help of his fellow advisors. One thing is for sure, he isn't throwing in the towel.
Actions of fellow Republicans should be watched carefully in this senario. Should they attach themselves with their leader's decision, they will attach themselves with his success. That has cost them heavily thus far.

This rumor that Bush is going to order 20,000-40,0000 troop to Iraq is just a political ploy by the Administration to prolong the war and dump it on the shoulders of the next Administration in 2008.
