Oh, Mr. President... don't go away mad, just go away.

I'm sooo not blogging this statement by statement but he did say some funny stuff in his press conference today. Everytime he gets behind a microphone he looks more and more like a Central American dictator.

On Terrorism... He talked about appealing the federal court's decision. Said that those that 'heralded the decision want government to lose the tools to fight terror'. Funny, the British have been the best at stopping terrorist plots and they didn't need the Patriot Act to do it.

Bitch just called us out. The President actually said that 'there are people in the Democratic Party who think we should leave Iraq tomorrow and they're wrong' and 'they want to leave before the job is done'. Fucking 'tard STILL does not get it. He said that if we leave before the job is done, the enemy will follow us here. Since that was what happened with the VietCong and all. He also said that the US is NOT leaving Iraq while I'm President.

Bush retreaded some of his old talking points on why we invaded though he DID admit that there are no WMD's in Iraq. Funny, many of us didn't have to invade Iraq to find that out. He also threw in 9/11...AND FINALLY A REPORTER ASKED THE RIGHT QUESTION...

Reporter: Mr. President, what did Iraq have to do with the attack on the WTC?
Bush: Nothing and no one in my administration has said that he (Saddam Hussein) ordered the attack.

He also stated that while people may not have agreed with the decision to go, if they hate things now they'll hate it if we pull out. Ladies and gentlement, I give you the first multidecade occupying force fielded by the United States of America.

'We're going to give the Iraqi's the tools to defend themselves'... I guess like we've given Katrina victims the tools to

'I've been reminding people that tax cuts work and pro-growth works'... for making my base richer and bankrupting the country. Yes, Mr. President... trickle down economics work well, except when they don't. Like now.

He said that if we leave before the job is done, the enemy will follow us here.

I enjoy an endless quagmire as much as the next man, but there are a few questions that keep nagging me.

First, What the fuck is the "job"? What are we actually trying to accomplish in Iraq these days? Do we even have a clue who or what we're fighting that goes beyond the puerile stupidity of calling them "evildoers"?

Second, How the fuck are we going to know when we're "finished"? What is it going to take for us to be able so say "we've won" and get the hell out of Dodge----er, Baghdad?

Third, What the fuck is our strategy? Given the fact that by virtually all objective metrics the situation is Iraq gets worse every month, isn't it possible that "staying the course" is a losing strategy?

Your comment is a clear cut case of hitting the nail squarely on the head.
