Finally, the media is saying it aloud, "This is bush's war".
I actually heard a pundit utter these words, several pundits, and I think it's a big breakthrough in it's way. Think about it, they've been calling it the war on terror for all these years, (Borat calls it the war OF terror), and they've called it everything but what it is, bush's own personal war.

bush started a war and has lost it. I repeat for the stunned, he lost his own fucking war, and now it's up to us to die in it and deal with it. I saw some 'expert' say that this clusterfuck could go on for 5 or 10 more years!

HE started this war, not us, not Iraq, not Afghanistan, not Saddam, not even Osama, he and his republik henchmen started this and now they can't convince the people that it's for their own good.

This is bush's war, for all of history, it's his legacy of failure and misery and horror and he's fucking stuck with it. Unfortunately so are we.

1. "Bush's War" must replace "Iraq War"
Edited on Wed Jan-10-07 12:32 PM by npincus
in all (Dem) discussion of it going forward. It has to take hold before 2008, when the war gets dumped onthe next prez.

Kinda like Edwards calling it the McCain Doctrine, getting a jump on the next go round.
