ORIGINAL: Owner59 Firmhanky blathered: oh ... that's right ... I forgot ... Mod11 died, and you are now "Forum God", and get to set the terms of all discussions. Crying towels are in the lobby,on the far right. The funny thing, is he spent FOUR PAGES evading a simple question by Sinergy, and when I *finally* beat the answer out of him, it was time to move onto the NEXT QUESTION in the thread, which are the two here. Now, we've covered a lot of ground over in the other thread. The first question can ONLY be honestly answered as "NO", given the benchmarks set in US Law which allocated the funds to implement the "Surge" strategy... The second, of course, is another issue. When someone wrongly concludes that a Strategy is good, why should their future analysis be given any credence, unless they are able to demonstrate to their constituency that they've learned from their error? Supporter of the "Surge Strategy" with the demonstrable failure of that strategy, must answer the question "Why should anyone bother listening to what you have to say NOW, when you backed the wrong horse before?"
