Democratic politicians have been holding an M-16 at Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfield for some time. All the while, Bush and his cronies have been giving Dems more and more ammo to fire at them, but alas, the Dems have been afraid to pull the trigger and let them have it, for fear of neocon phrases like "cut and run", "defeatocrats", "unpatriotic", etc. Meanwhile, Bush never changed his "stay the course" attitude because it wasnt working, or because of all the people killed, it wasnt until Republicans started complaining to him that they were going to lose the mid-term elections if he didnt rethink the current strategy.
By the way, some Bush translations.....
"stay the course"----means "To change course is to admit I was wrong, and I will never do that no matter how many people get killed"
"changing tactics"---means "we are gonna get killed in the election if we don't at least SAY we are going to do something different".
Why dont the Dems stand up to the Republicans?
