Bush: "I will once again explain the consequences of failure...and ... the consequences of success"

http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/07/bush_weve_got_a_plan_to_lead_t.html

<snip>

"I'm going to spend some time talking about the war on terror and our need to succeed in Iraq,'' Bush said. "And I'm going to remind the people in the audience today that troop levels will be decided by our commanders on the ground, not by political figures in Washington, D.C., and that we've got a plan to lead to victory.

"And I fully understand that this is a difficult war, and it's hard on the American people. But I will once again explain the consequences of failure to the American people, and I'll explain the consequences of success, as well.''

2. It will be decided
by generals on the ground! Unless they happen to disagree with him, then they are fired and a new one brought in, ad infinitum until everyone 'on the ground' will do exactly what he wants!

Four years is long enough. Too long.

11. Focus groups finally got tired of hearing about "winning" and "losing," I guess.
Ergo, now he will talk about success and failure.

12. This war is not hard on the american people
bush supporters party on and barbecue and drink beer on the weekends. Not one of us has sacrificed a goddamned thing except the family and loved ones of our troops. Americans did sacrifice and aid and assist the war effort in WWII because the President asked them to. This jerkoff justs wants to stay the course, like a drunk lying on the railroad tracks.

20. Bush doesn't consider himself a political figure even.
He considers himself Commander in Chief. So what, he has no role in deciding troop numbers? Please.

21. Ya know, after over 4 years of this shit, I really don't think I can get too excited
about a 'plan to lead to victory'. Where the hell was it 4+ years ago, Moron?
