Surprise! Now we won't know how the surge is doing until November

Show of hands for anyone who is surprised. Gee, and just yesterday all the Republicans in the Senate were saying that we only had to wait until September to get our answer. Then again, we found out last month that General Petraeus had already decided that come September he was going to announce the surge a success, even though now we find out that September is too early a time to know - even though Petraeus ALREADY knows. It is difficult to keep track of all of one's lies.
