LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - President Bush is kicking off another series of speeches to counter opposition to the war in Iraq, impatience with the rising U.S. death toll and anxiety about possible terrorist attacks.

<snip>

It is the third time in less than a year that Bush has made a series of speeches on Iraq and terrorism. They come two months before congressional elections and at a point when Bush's approval rate is at 33 percent in the August AP-Ipsos poll. His approval on handling of Iraq also was at 33 percent in the poll.

"They are not political speeches," Bush said outside a Little Rock restaurant where he made a campaign stop with Asa Hutchinson, a former congressman who is running for governor against Democrat Mike Beebe. "They're speeches about the future of this country and they're speeches to make it clear that if we retreat before the job is done, this nation will become even more in jeopardy.

"These are important times and I would seriously hope people wouldn't politicize these issues that I'm going to talk about," the president said. "We have a duty in this country to defeat terrorists. That's why we'll stay on the offensive to bring them to justice before they hurt us. And that's why we'll work to spread liberty in order to achieve the peace."

4. "Now is the winter of our discontent."

Maybe the chimp can ape from one of his three shakespeares....


I am determined to prove a villain,
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,
By drunken prophecies, libels, and dreams,

5. Those have worked so well for him in the past.

Remember over the winter, the "Bush Series of Speeches Explaining How Hard The War On Iraq Rocks"?

}(

They'll try anything at this point.

6. I wonder if this will last longer than the series of speeches about SS

or the series of speeches about katrina... he seriously does have a discipline problem.

[gratuitous]

7. Will this be like the Iraq speech "series"?

Remember that? Back in late May-early June 2004, Bush was going to give a speech a week on Iraq to explain to the American people just how serious Iraq is and how he was going to get everything whipped into shape over there. The "series" lasted exactly one speech and was never heard from again. In fact, you're not even reading about it here.

And the reason Bush hopes nobody politicizes his politicking is because he knows he's going to get shellacked. Again.

8. It says his speeches are meant to counter anxiety about pending

terrarist attacks. Obviously he is trying to increase anxiety. Fools.
