For what
He didn't defend his policy. HE HAS NO POLICY! That's what this is all about. It's 2 1/2 years into the war in Iraq and the president has never clearly stated our goal. Thus it is impossible to finish a task if there is no task to be finished. The war was based on lies. No amount of lives can make those lies truth. That is the criticism Mr. President. The speech today shows that he and the ever smaller amount of followers simply don't get that a war based on lies can not be won. Lies can never be the truth. Meanwhile real terrorist are alive and well because GWB never went after the real criminals of 9/11.



President George W. Bush on Monday issued a robust defence of his Iraq policy against mounting domestic criticism, vowing "nothing less than the total victory over the terrorists". He acknowledged the deaths of 1,864 US soldiers in Iraq and the "grieving families and loved ones back home" but insisted that, rather than set a
timetable for withdrawal, "we owe them something. We will finish the task that they gave their lives for."
