The Red Wings were in a play-off game so I watched just enough of W. to piss me off, then I watched just of enough of the (eventual) Red Wing loss to piss me off and then I went to bed ... PISSED OFF!  Side note: Why is everyone making such a big deal out of W. agreeing to send more troops like it's a new issue? The military leaders have been asking for additional troops for months. And from what I hear some (or most) of that "additional" support isn't so much coming from more units coming in as much as not redeploying some of those already over there on their original date. In effect, there won't be so many "new" units but those already present would be bulked up past what is a normal allocation for that particular type of unit as personnel that were supposed to be replacements arrive. |

1. W. isnt the president of the world (although he is the president of the "free world"), so their opinion doesn't mean all too much in the long run. Last time I checked, stupid little non-important countries weren't suffering from Muslim terrorist attacks. 2. The last time the world came to an agreement about something, Nazi Germany was steamrolling through Europe and gathering up countries without a shot being fired. Appeasement worked out really well in that case  Davin, a little history about the way the world works: Just because the world says something, that doesnt make it right. By the statement you made, it would seem that you would support the state-sponsored bukkake of teenage girls when they turn 18. After all, the wwwoorrllddd agreed to it! |

| Abcdxxxx | GA makes an interesting point... the 9/11 investigation has shifted to being all about this intelligence gathering pointing fingers at the agencies thing without adressing some real questions I think we all want to know... like who authorized the Saudi planes and why. It's like that's become a side topic to question in passing, without it being the focus it should be. It would also help if GW stopped smirking so much. | |||

| Brandon | I must say, though, that it was very smart of Bush to avoid the "apology" trap the reporters had set. | |||

Short of citing the war in Iraq specifically as a mistake, can I instead cite his complete failure to adhere to the will of America and the world in the spring of 2003? I believe signs in protest of the war immediately after the fact read something along the lines of "THE WORLD SAID NO." Or perhaps the mistake his administration made in drastically cutting back our attentiveness to terrorism even up to 9/10/2001? Maybe the "miscommunication" (which, in this case, is the gentle way of saying "bold-faced lie") that American soldiers would be greeted as liberators by the Iraqi people? Or I could mean the misdeed of wilfully acting pre-emptively on shoddy intelligence that had been questioned by the international community. No president is perfect, and many presidents apologize. This administration simply refuses to admit that they are ever wrong. Quote:

| BombsBurstingInAir | I must also add that the references to all the terrorist actions against U.S. intrests, that occured in the past, was a nice touch. I think it helps to put things in perspective. | |||

Was invading Iraq a mistake? It could be, in your opinion. But that is in the eye of the beholder. Maybe the President, like myself and others, do not think it was a mistake. |

| davinxtk | Or he could admit to his mistakes, miscommunications, and misdeeds and perhaps save a little bit of face in the eyes and minds of people who are paying attention, instead of depending on those who aren't to follow him like lemmings, provided he doesn't directly admit wrongdoing. | |||

| El Blanco | So, he was just supposed to walk into a question thatwas a trap? He is a politician for crying out loud. | |||
| Apr 13th, 2004 10:46 PM | ||||
| Brandon | Roughly every answer came back to "we're going to stay the course in Iraq," even if the question was completely unrelated. | |||

Who's david? He was asked the yes-or-no question of "Do you think you've failed as a communicator?" and he responded with "We're going to let the American voters decide that in November." He was asked if he thinks he and/or his administration owe apologies to the American people for 9/11 and without saying "yes" or "no," went into rhetoric and blame-placing without addressing the question head-on. He kept coming back to the same tired points, mentioning a "turkey farm with 50 tons of mustard gas" multiple times. |

| El Blanco | I didn't catch it, so david, please cite specific examples of him dodging question and talking in circles. | |||

The shot that summarized the night for me was him walking away with his back to the microphone. He dodged questions, contradicted himself, and talked in circles. He made sense for the first 10 seconds that I caught, but that's about as long as I think he'll ever last. |
