More Bush League Material...
Bush was also asked in his press conference how he responds to some people labeling Iraq as his Vietnam and how he felt about some saying this is a quagmire?
Bush answered that it's not. (This I don't have a problem with. Right now I think it's too soon to slap a New Vietnam label on this war.)
He proceeded to explain why... (this part I have a problem with) He said that we shouldn't say such things because it's demoralizing to the troops and bolsters the enemy.
Say what?
That's just stupid. That's not explaining why it isn't a new Vietnam or a quagmire of any kind, but it's just creating a bullsh*t reason that people can't use it. In fact, his answer really didn't say that those accusations weren't true, it just said not to use them.
"I don't have a real answer, but if you use those words you'll hurt the troops."
You can't play that trump card with this... that's as bad as pulling out 9/11 every time you don't want to answer a question.
Bush would do so much better with me if he would never open his mouth, the guy's about as slick as a gravel road and as bright as a burned out sparkler.
