So President Bush had a press conference earlier in the week and has been pretty much ripped to pieces in the press.
The article from Slate made me think about the whole quagmire in Iraq a little differently. The article was dead on. There is no strategy there, it is just an ideology. And while having an ideology is nice, it doesn’t mean much when you’re trying to settle a country in a civil war. We need a real plan now.
Maybe Bush should just keep a low profile for a bit. Giving news conferences just isn’t his strong point.
