I listened to Bush last night, and I started to get offended by how shamelessly pathetic he's getting. Did you notice the tone of his speech? He wasn't taking any responsibility for his actions, instead, he seemed to be offering his new so-called plan as a response to some other president who started this war.

I think sending 20,000 more troops into Iraq(not all at once mind you, some here and some there over the course of the next few months) is like giving a homeless person a quarter. Some conservatives on this site have said that the experts ought to have the say on this matter, but Bush is ignoring all the experts.

Is he doing this so that he can blame the congress for not being tough on terrorism? Who knows. I sincerely believe that the president is seriously misguided, that he sits there with his posse and is actually convinced that this "surge" in troops is going to get us over the hump in Iraq. The only thing left to do now is to have a few strong Democrats come out and offer their plan on what they would do, because we all know that the president's just dragging his feet while brave Americans are dying.
