Guiliani calls for more military - Afganistan

Although he may be right, I think he's just using these announcements to pull attention back away from John McCain. McCain is the leader and the man who's spoken his mind for the last 8 years.

Giuliani calls for Afghanistan troop 'surge'

Republican presidential contender Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday called for doubling
U.S. combat troops in Afghanistan as part of a broader military expansion
Defense Secretary Robert Gates said last month another 7,500 troops were
required in Afghanistan but he has made clear Washington wants other NATO
nations to provide the vast majority of those forces
Asked about those polls in Hooksett, he said, "We are staying on the substance,
which is that we have to be on the offense in the war on terror, increase the
military ... "
His latest TV ad, "Ready" shows a chaotic world trying to cope with terrorism
and concludes, "In a world where the next crisis is a moment away, America needs
a leader who is ready."
