FORWARD OPERATING DeBASE FALCON, Iraq fense Secretary Robert Gates on Monday endorsed, for the first time, the idea of pausing the drawdown of U.S. forces from Iraq this summer. "A brief period of consolidation and evaluation probably does make sense," Gates told reporters after meeting with Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq. Pe 2008, Daily Herald.

Please allow me to explain... Every year, the months of January, February and March can "destroy" my business. I end up losing a ton of money during these "business destroyer" months and it can take me the remaining nine months to make up for them. I'm looking for the same thing to happen this year. That is why Perfect Fit for Your Home 0 Just call me at anytime. I will come out and measure your home (and determine the availability of the proper size). Don't forget, I only have 64 matched systems in four sizes. When they are gone, this remarkable offer ends also. an Excellent My Problem Opportunity for You is employ great people and want to keep them working during these long, hard months. That is why I've decided to give up trying to make a profit during the "business destroyer" months. If I can only minimize my losses during January, February and March, I will come out ahead of the other nine months. I I Here's how this (admittedly daring) offer came about. -- Every year, the big manufactures of air conditioners have to guess how many to build to meet the demand. Of course, they're never exactly right. So, they always have some inventory that they must hold over until the next summer season. I went to one of these companies and contracted for the purchase of 64 air conditioners and furnaces in the four most popular sizes used in Utah Valley. And, because of the quantity and time of year, I was able to buy them at drastically reduced, prices. 2007 They are brand-nemodels and they are NOT the seconds or "blems" or standard "builder" models.

I even decided not to mark up the interest rate like some companies do.

In endorsing Petraeus' suggestion of pausing after July, Gates made it clear that President Bush would have the final say. Until now it had been unclear how Gates felt about the idea of a pause; he had said publicly a number of times that he hoped conditions in Iraq would permit a continuation of the drawdown in the second half of the year. Absolutely No Obligation Even after I completely explain the installation, there is absolutely no obligation. If you decide you don't want to take advantage of the spectacular savings... that's okay.
