Bush "I can't get the job done"

Bush says the troops will come home when the mission is completed, and then says they will be there as long as he is president. So he said he can't get the job done.

7. God! that must be why he failed as CEO
"we will continue to pour money into the 'blood from a stone' project until the job is done! I will not stop this while I am CEO!"

10. He's not thinking about what's right for America. He's just trying to
stay loyal to those who will make his return to the private sector more comfortable.

12. To bring them home now would be an admission he was wrong...
Edited on Fri Aug-25-06 06:55 AM by Crankie Avalon
...he doesn't have that in him, no matter how much not admitting it harms the country. His whole life has been one series of failures. This "presidency" is his last chance at showing he wasn't a failure. If he were to succeed at it, all the other decades of his wasted life would be outweighed. And his "presidency" hinges on this war. He thinks so long as he prolongs it, there will never be a judgment of failure.

When the next president brings the troops home, Bush and his ilk will blame that person and say the failure of America in Iraq was because that president brought home the troops "before the job was done," not because of the actual reasons--that the troops never should have been sent there in the first place or that a lack of any strategy and the missteps of the Bush administration caused the Iraqi people to turn against the Americans during those crucial early/developmental years of the occupation.

It's all about him and his shoddy ego.
