...that is time for you and your incompetent administration to resign. This week we have heard a report that Iraq has not reached any of the benchmarks that were set, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff has a "gut feeling" about an increased terrorist risk, and a new U.S. threat assessment reported that al Qaida had rebuilt its ability to wage attacks at levels not seen since 2001. And Bush's response? He gave a news conference today insisting that he will not pull our troops out of Iraq.
I wonder if Bush now realizes how horribly wrong he has been about everything? Does he now see the unstoppable chaos he has unleashed in Iraq? Does he now understand that a long, brutal, and deadly civil war has just begun in Iraq and will continue whether our troops stay there another week, a month, or years? Is he just postponing the inevitable until he is out of office? It's clear that once we leave Iraq, the bloodshed and civil strife in Iraq will escalate without restraint. All the troops in the world couldn't unite and bring peace to that country. Their history is built on tribal and religious fighting, and it certainly does not appear that is going to change in the future. Perhaps at last Bush realizes all this and rather than admit it and stop this insanity, he will prolong this nightmare until he is out of office and someone else has to try to clean up this mess.
Or perhaps he truly is delusional and insane?
