No end to the BS, is there? Too bad he can't head over there and speechify them to death. If Bush BS were bullets the country would be barren except for oil wells.

WASHINGTON (AP) - "President Bush marked the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq on Monday as the White House tried to counter Democratic attempts to force a withdrawal of U.S. troops.

"Bush was expected to issue a plea for more patience in the war, which has stretched longer with higher costs than the White House ever anticipated. The president was to make a statement in the Roosevelt Room."

George, this situation is lost. Over. Done. Everything but the killing. Think Wile E. Coyote over the edge of the cliff, running like hell to stay up. The only issue is how far he is going to fall before he hits. But he runs and runs and runs in place until the inevitable happens. In this scenario, George, you are Wile E. Coyote. Thought I'd clarify that.

And the DoD seems to be like Acme, all the expensive high-tech stuff which just doesn't seem to translate into results.
