About Bush's latest speech... One must conclude that Bush is trying...

At this point, one must conclude that Bush is trying to convince himself that the Iraq occupation was a wise endeavor.

8. Definitely - when is the last time he 'treated' us to a press conference

a major speech and a major appointment (Miers nomination) in such a brief window of time.

May the Mayan Wind God hear our prayer.

5. Yes. Iraq was a great success. We learned a good deal about

Muslims from this war. We will apply these successes in our next operation.

3. I see him as claiming to be a war president so he won't be removed

when Traitorgate hits. The Irony - a war he manufactured should provide the justification for his continuing in office.

9. Not much of a stretch.

Isn't that today's rationale for staying in Iraq? "Whoops, we're there, we might as well 'finish' the job"
