Troops for hire. Battle-hardened troops for hire. Troops no longer his to use After his Iraq adieus. Troops for hire. Who will rent After Rummy's failed experiment? Mercenaries for Iraq – Will they let Bush rent them back? Troops for rent. Let the pundits tout the war in their childish way. Iraqis know the game of war better far than they. Bush still thinks that Iraq lost, But look how the dice were tossed: Our troops are their troops! Neocons, still nincompoops! Troops on loan. Troops believed to be our very own. Were they sold or merely lent? Questions Bush will soon lament, Or more likely circumvent And postpone.
