bush to admit failure, cnn reading excerpts....woah

[Philosoraptor]

For some reason they've released snippets from bush's speech tonight before he's even read it, and in it he explains the two main reasons his war is failing.

[iconoclastic cat]

1. Yeah, that'll work: "I failed...so I'm sending 21,500 more troops."

Everyone will love that, sure.

[BigNeeravT]

2. Yeah cause he is incompetent n/t

[YDogg]

3. he's still full of shit

[dicknbush]

4. Wow Bush catches up with the rest of the country and realizes he is a screwup

Thanks * We all feel alot better now. Oh by the way in case you ahdn't heard
Insnity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result". IN OTHER WORDS NO ESCALLATION!

5. The two main reasons are that he is a moron and does not

listen to anyone with brains. We all should listen to advice regardless of who is giving the advice. The tough part is sorting out the good advice from the bad advice.

6. Hey Dad, I'm really sorry that I've totaled 3,018 cars. Can I have 20,000 more?

American cars, that is.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

7. Will he eat a pretzel on live TV at the end of his speech?

Since he finally recognizes that his entire existence is synonymous with failure and he has nothing left to live for?

[The_Casual_Observer]

8. I'll bet he's blaming it on somebody else, or "we".

[AlinPA]

9. This whole thing- "war", "surge", "mission accomplished", "bring 'em on",

"mushroom clouds", "smoke 'em out", "fight them there or fight them here", "dead or alive", "we're winning", etc, etc, is totally sick. The U.S. is in deep trouble now. The Christian fundamentalists and evangelists ruined this country by electing this slime and are now praying for their "left behind " crap to come true. Jay-sus is coming if we can have a big war. I have worked very hard not to use foul language here.

[brettdale]

10. Im guesing the reasons are

The Liberal media
and Nancy Pelosi

[liberal renegade]

14. ah hell

I thought it was the big dogs fault...

[helderheid]

11. I want to hear he's resigning over it. He and trigger happy.

[BeyondGeography]

12. Does he admit it was all a hopelessly dumb idea, even for him?

[TheCowsCameHome]

13. Good. Let him tender his resignation effective 9PM

[Jacobin]

15. not a fucking chance. He'll say 'mistakes were made'

in the passive voice, making it clear it was others who fucked up his glorious war.

book it

[bigwillq]

17. Exactly (nt)

[eleny]

16. How far into the speech will he toss his cookies?

[bigwillq]

18. Does he actually say the word 'failure'?

:shrug:

I bet he doesn't.
