Bush tells nation to be patient

While he figures out how he can win this here war in Iraq. Read this about Georgie's personality:
...Gail Sheehy wrote an article for the {Vanity Fair} magazine about W. that made this point: “Even if he loses, his friends say, he doesn’t lose. He’ll just change the score, or change the rules, or make his opponent play until he can beat him."
Ask why we are standing by while countries go up in flames and people are dying while he says this:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush marked the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq on Monday as the White House tried to counter Democratic attempts to force a withdrawal of U.S. troops.

Bush was expected to issue a plea for more patience in the war, which has stretched longer with higher costs than the White House ever anticipated. The president was to make a statement in the Roosevelt Room.

It's over, Georgie. You lost. Your legacy is shit.

Update: Georgie demands that we let him complete the mission. DEFINE THE MISSION, Georgie! Black and white. Tell us what the military is supposed to accomplish. Then they will do it and get out of there. Right? No?

Is that why you resist timetables, benchmarks, and to do lists? Because this is an open-ended war with no end in sight?

Bush ridiculed House Democrats' legislation to remove troops, a measure he has promised to veto because it contains a timeline. He called it an abdication of U.S. commitments to Iraqis.

"There's a lot more work to be done and Iraq's leaders must continue to work to meet the benchmarks they have set forward," he said. "As Iraqis work to meet their commitments, we have important commitments of our own."

The House's war spending bill includes a troop withdrawal deadline of Sept. 1, 2008. The timeline would speed up if the Iraqi government cannot meet its own benchmarks for providing security, allocating oil revenues and other essential steps.

Democrats "have a responsibility to ensure that this bill provides the funds and the flexibility that our troops need to accomplish their mission," the president said."They have a responsibility to pass a clean bill that does not use funding for our troops as leverage to get special interest spending for their district. And they have a responsibility to get this bill to my desk without strings and without delay."

Take a look, George. The majority of the Iraqis hate us, nearly six in ten Americans want to see U.S. troops leave Iraq either immediately or within a year, and the world community thinks we're deranged.

What on earth will six more months give us that the last six months and the last six months before that didn't give us?
