Bush dumps the "struggle against extremists" as his war mantra
And re institutes the war on terror. This guy is schizoid.

1. seems more sociopathic than schizoid
For one, he doesn't appear to be asocial at all. Poor speech isn't paucity of speech.

10. He never wanted the 'struggle' term to be used. That was the rest of the
administration. Apparently he was really pissed off.

It's a lot harder to be a struggle-time president.

3. There was a thread here that he was against the term.
And was offended because nobody told him the terms had changed. Might it be that everybody else in the administration will go around saying GSAVE while Bush is still saying WOT?

6. Could this be an indication of
internal strife? I have a feeling the facade is slowly disintegrating.

8. The struggle against extremists
is too easily portrayed as the struggle against Falwell, Phelps, etc.

Bush may have actually had a flash of insight when he realized that wasn't going to work.
