Bush Confesses Error
by TChris
The president who, during a presidential debate, couldn't recall making a bad decision now confesses that he made mistakes. Today's spin diverts attention from the president's poor policy choices to his poor communication skills. The folksy president regrets using colorful expressions like "bring 'em on" and "dead or alive" because "certain parts of the world" (including, presumably, the rest of it) misinterpreted his "tough talk." Could be that all the needless killing reinforced that (mis?)interpretation, but the president didn't go there.
With Tony Blair at his side, President Bush firmly reaffirmed his commitment to stay the course in Iraq, dismissing rumors of troop reductions as "speculation in the press." The policy that brought us 2,460 U.S. military deaths and chaos in Iraq won't change, but Bush has promised to explain the policy "in a more sophisticated manner" from now on. Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
