There IS no face saving way out. A responsible president would admit the terrible errors, apologize profusely, and withdraw forces immediately.
But alas, we have a mental case in office instead.

Many military men have been trying to tell George Bush that we are losing in the battle of Iraq and need another stratagy, he is just now starting to get the idea, he has never had a clue but it might have been the numbers that is starting to change his mind. 655,000 Iraqi dead, 2800 Americans have died. His stay the course is going down the wrong road and he knows it but has to save face some way. George has painted himself into a corner and doesn't know when the paint will dry.
