"Terrorists have launched more attacks. They are getting more desperate. We must be winning."
I love that reasoning. According to that, the US must have been absolutely on it's last legs when it dropped the A-bomb on Japan.
By most standards, when they are getting desperate, they launch fewer, weaker, less sophisticated, less coordinated attacks.
Conservative spin all through the Iraqi situation has been that every attack is a measure of desperation indicating a weak opposition.
It's a way to try to turn yer losses into PR successes. Dishonest, but what we've come to expect from this administration.
