Bush: Flip-Flopper

Kos says, Bush: "I'm confused as shit"

I say that Bush can't take a piss without cue cards!


Poor George. Asked whether we would "win the war on terror", he has wilted under the pressure of the question. First he says we will. Then he says we won't. Now he says we will.


One day after saying the war on terror could not be won, President Bush on Tuesday sought to calm a political storm by asserting he had been less than articulate and that America would prevail.


Sure, Bush is "less than articulate". But "I don't think you can win it" is not an issue of being articulate. Kerry's team jumped all over the statement and the subsequent flip flop:


Kerry campaign spokesman Phil Singer derided Bush's latest remarks.

"What today showed is that George Bush might be able to give a speech saying he can win the war on terror. But he's clearly got real doubts about his ability to do so and for good reason," Singer said.


We need a president who is committed to winning the war. Not one who clearly, and unambigiously, said he didn't think he was up to the task.
