Custer "pleased with the progress" at Little Big Horn
If you think about it, the US troops in Iraq really are repeating the Little Big Horn. This isn't Viet Nam ~ it's the Little Big Horn! Our troops are surrounded on all sides by a numerically superior enemy who are whittling them down (horrible!) and our troops are stuck there by orders from a commander-in-chief who disobeyed direct orders from his commanding officer in time of war! Insanity! It's insanity! {Borrowed from the OTWA}
President George W. Bush's description of recent events in Iraq is "bland to the point of dishonesty,"
Not only has Mr. Bush not said how, or whether, he intends to respond to the worsening situation -- he doesn't really admit it exists.....
"This duck-and-cover strategy may have its political advantages, but it is also deeply irresponsible and potentially dangerous"
If Bush had ever gotten treated for his alcoholism by a formal support group, he might know that step one is always admitting the problem....
Deja vu all over again. The intelligence community issues a report and Bush acts like it says something completely different.

Bigpeepa said:The biggest insanity is that about 1/2 of the American people seem to agree with them.
Sorry Bigpeepa...it has been this way throughout history.....I think the majority of people will always behave like sheep...and there will always be a small minority manipulating the majority.
There ain't no answer. There ain't gonna be any answer. There never has been an answer. That's the answer. Sad but true.. Maggie

You've got that right, dadofstickboy.

"As I have said time and again, 9/11 changed everything. Everything, that is, except the national Democrats' shameful, manic obsession with bringing down a commander-in-chief.
John Kerry has been wrong many times, but he's never been more wrong than in his failure to support our troops and our commander in chief in this war on terror. So, my critics can call me a psychopath and fire spitballs at me and froth at the mouth when an ex-president sends me a nasty letter.
That's the freedom of speech they all enjoy, courtesy of the American soldier." --Zell Miller
"Those who doubted whether Iraq or the world would be better off without Saddam Hussein, and those who believe today that we are not safer with his capture, don´t have the judgment to be president or the credibility to be elected president." - john kerry

"These dizzying contradictions -- so glaring, so public, so frequent -- have gone beyond undermining anything Kerry can now say on Iraq. They have been transmuted into a character issue."
