Jaded Times

Ah, the eloquence, no? Bush gave a speech on Wednesday warning that terrorist activities will increase in Iraq, but that “our troops will be ready”. Which is an interesting statement, considering how many people have died in the last couple weeks in the country (including 60+ yesterday). But what I found most interesting came at the end of the article:

“The support of Congress for our troops and our mission is important and Americans need to know about the gains we have made in recent weeks and months, they need to know the way we’re adapting our tactics, and the way we’re changing our strategies to meet the needs on the ground,” Bush said

Changing our strategies to meet the needs on the ground? Hmm, that is good news. Of course, it would have been better news to hear him come out in early 2004 and say “Thanks to the tireless training and equipping of our soldiers, and the capable planning of our military, which included training and plotting based on urban guerrilla situations, we have successfully brought peace to Iraq and handed control of the country over to the Iraqi government.” See, the reason that wasn’t said is that Bush and his cronies have no idea what they are doing. None at all. Zero.

George W. Bush is the reason your children are dying needlessly. If you’re ok with that, continue supporting him.
