NOW he tells us
Posted by Jill | 2:04 PM
I'm sure that the parents of the 972 soldiers who have died in Bush's Iraq will take great comfort from this:


President George Bush acknowledged today that he does not think the war on terror can be won, but said it would make it less acceptable for groups to use terrorism as a tool.

In a US TV interview, Bush, who has said he expects the war on terror to be a long, drawn-out battle, was asked: “Can we win it?”

The president replied: “I don’t think you can win it. But I think you can create conditions so that the – those who use terror as a tool are – less acceptable in parts of the world.”


"Less acceptable"? Oh, so he's talking about shunning, right? Maybe that's what he was discussing with the Amish -- how to successfully implement shunning as a tool of foreign policy.

Now, I happen to think that shunning might not be a bad idea, but don't you think that 872 lives and a year and a half of dick-waving later, it's maybe a tad late in the game to decide this?

Bush's "war on terror" is supposed to be the centerpiece of his campaign, in a party where winning is the ONLY thing that matters. And now he's saying the so-called "war on terror" can't be won?

Of course it can't, but Bush has played on the trust of millions of America over the last three years to further his neocons' policy agendas, only to tell them now it was all for nothing.

I can't believe this guy is polling anything north of the 30% of cretins who form his base.
