Bush Criticizes Democrats on Iraq War
10.31.06 (8:07 am)   [edit]

Weakened by the unpopular Iraq war, President Bush accused Democrats of lacking a plan to win it as he is campaigning to maintain Republican control of Congress.

President Bush has just sunk to an all time low in my book with these campaign statements.  He does not have the right to say this about the Democrats.  This is his war.  Shouldn't it be he that needs a plan for Iraq?  I am sorry Mr. President, but you do not get to criticize the Democrats on this one.  Last time I checked, it is you and you and your Republican held Congress in control of making these kinds of decisions.  Don't put the blame on the Democrats for not having a plan when you don't have a clue on what to do in Iraq.

It was some of your party members who wanted a vote of no-confidence for the Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfield.  Shouldn't that be a sign to you that you are doing something wrong here?  I guess it hasn't since the only thing you changed was your slogan for your so called "plan".  The only reason you changed the slogan from "Stay the Course" to whatever the hell it is now is because you finally woke up and saw just how unpopular this war is among fellow Americans.  You realized that the only way you will gain support for a hope of keeping control of Congress and having an attempt to bring your pitiful approval rating from out the dump is to change your slogan.  How about you try this instead Mr. President, how about instead of changing the slogan of your plan, you change the actual plan or better yet, formulate a plan.

What kind of President goes into a war and has no idea on how to get us out of it?  If he could serve another four year term, I guarantee you he would still have the troops in Iraq getting shot at and killed everyday with still no plan on how to get out and consider this an American victory.

You have no right to criticize the Democrats on this one George.  This is your mess you got yourself in to.  This is why you are going to lose control of the House and I hope to God the Senate as well.  I hope they make the rest of your pathetic presidency a living nightmare.  Next time, before you decide to criticize the Democrats, you need to start with your own party.  The Republican party is supporting you on this, and they are the ones with no plan on how to get out and win this war.

I am against any war.

But prejudice apart, the least a leader could do before officialising a war is to plan it out from beginning to end including several options for failure cases. Always if he intends to run out victorious ...

Happy Halloween to you too. Yeah, when I wrote this I was pretty pissed off. I could not believe that of all people, he was making these comments.

I already voted me too. I had to vote absentee because of school. This was the first time I did it and it felt great!
