forget about poland

In the debates, Bush was really showing his love of Poland. When Kerry listed the US, the UK, and Australia as the three nations providing troops to the initial invasion of Iraq, Bush was quick to point out that he forgot Poland in the list. Poland was also brought up by Bush as a seemingly major ally at another point in the debate as well.

Well, according to CNN, Poland is thinking about pulling out 40% of its 2500 troops (yes, 2500 troops...no wonder Bush was exhalting their presence so highly) by Jaunary, pulling the last 1500 out by the end of 2005.

So much for the coalition of the willing...
