Bush: Same Old Tired Story

Bush gave another speech this morning to a typically happy audience of hawks. We won't cut and run.. blah blah blah. No politician is suggesting that Bush cut and run. Bush created a strawman:

MSNBC “Some are calling for a deadline for withdrawal. The many advocating an artificial timetable for withdrawing are sincere. But I believe they’re sincerely wrong. Pulling our troops out before they achieve their purpose is not a plan for victory...."

"To all who wear the uniform, I make you this pledge, America will not run in the face of car bombers and assassins so long as I am your commander in chief,” Bush declared.
