Bush: Dems try to micromanage Iraq war

WASHINGTON - President Bush on Saturday accused Democrats who are
moving anti-war legislation through Congress of using troops as leverage
to win domestic political battles.

"Unfortunately, some in Congress are using this bill as an opportunity
to micromanage our military commanders, force a precipitous withdrawal
from Iraq and spend billions on domestic projects that have nothing to
do with the war on terror," Bush said in his weekly radio address.
"Many in Congress say they support the troops, and I believe them.
Now they have a chance to show that support in deed, as well as in
word."

Bush repeated his promise that his request for funding for the wars in
Iraq and Afghanistan must be approved "without strings and without
delay" or he will veto it.

Democrats will have another opportunity to weigh in on Iraq next week,
when the full House begins work on the war spending request, which
covers costs for this year.

1. Bush has been doing such a great fucking job

that it's baffling why anybody would even dream of interfering his his plans.

2. Micro or macro--just give us some management

[gratuitous]

3. Well, SOMEONE should be managing things in Iraq!

The monumental clusterfuck going on there now sure as hell hasn't been managed very well to this point by President Gentleman's C.

4. "Micromanage" is their new meme

I've heard it four times this week from different Repubs.They've obviously got their talking points decided.
