I hate to be accused of being a negative Nellie, but things in Iraq are going contrary to Bush's chest-thumping assertions. Take a look at two news stories from today for a sniff of the magnitude of the President's spin:
Family of 6 killed
One has to wonder just exactly how many safehouses are left after months of arial bombardment. One also has to wonder why we are sending planes to capture an intelligence target. One has to wonder just how many civilians we are willing to murder in order to free (so far it's a lot).
In other news, there are early reports that "Four children killed, 20 people injured, including 11 US troops in double car bombing against US military convoy near nursery school in Samarra. Sunni Triangle town captured by US and Iraqi forces earlier this month." More (potentially) here
If reality catches up to this President's rhetoric his goose is cooked. I know it. He knows it. Karl Rove knows it.
So I expect.....
There'll be a new accusation from an undisclosed location that is pure fabrication in need of documentation.
Will you take your eye off the ball when it comes? Most do. I'll give you a hint, "Vietnam was 30 years ago. Iraq is our generation's test."
