Bush Motto : Stay on the Offensive.

He plays politics just like he fights wars...at least he tries. He falls apart and loses focus if he is put on the defensive. He becomes irrational. He makes very poor judgment calls.

At the present time, they are trying to put Kerry on the defensive, just as they are trying to put the besieged on the defensive in Fallujah. He would like to destroy them both.

He is a dangerous man when he doesn't get his way or things do not go according to plan. Some may find those characteristics admirable but they obviously do not understand the consequences of their beliefs. He has guts, they say. Even the military leadership reationalizes in like manner, as the madman continues his madness against the world.

I find bush offensive. :)

Bush is in way over his head. You would hope his cabinet would recognize this and compensate. Small hope. He's surrounded himself with frustrated, retread hawks who are trying to realize the same blundering policies that failed in their past. Unfortunately our soldiers are at the tipping point of their ambitions.
