Click to Play

The Center for American Progress sets the facts straight in advance of President Bush's speech to the nation September 13, 2007 on the troop surge policy in Iraq. The surge will end in 2008, not because it has been effective, but because the Army lacks sufficient troops and faces a military readiness crisis.

Featuring Larry Korb, Brian Katulis, Caroline Wadhams & Rand Beers
