Why the heck is the Bush Admin and Bush himself so lame at communicating this? Every month Bush should go to a joint session of Congress and give them there requested "update". Seriously, use charts, graphics, photos and whatever else is needed to drum beat this into the think skulls of the American people -- bypassing the MSM!

BTW. Same thing with the roaring American economy, declining crime rate etc.

High reenlistment rates among those serving in Iraq says more than the 24/7 liberal BS smokscreen ever will. These folks are being ridden extremely hard and despite a 4.9 percent unemployment rate, are choosing to stay the course!

I think you're being naive here. The MSM would still be the conduit through which people would hear of these briefings, and the MSM's main sources of commentary about these updates would be the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

If the MSM wants to paint a bad picture, briefings to Congress won't change that.

If the networks decided not to cover the event, how are the American people supposed to see it?

I had a conversation with my mother in law about this very subject. Both of us are staunch Republicans, both of us support President Bush but neither of us can figure out why this President, nor his supposed political mastermind Karl Rove, have waited so long to get out in front of this story.

The problems solved by just speaking the truth would go far beyond poll numbers. It would help embolden the limp spined Republicans in the senate and force the RINOS of the bunch to tow the line or get left behind.

The media would also be forced to report the truth if they were confronted with facts every time they report false figures, facts, and statements. Every time a Republican is in front of a camera with a democrat or a liberal reporter the Republicans should be beating the snot out of them with the facts and should not stop swinging until they are bloodied by the truth.
