I agree. Bush doesn't articulate well. He lets the media talking heads make points and walk all over him and seems to take for granted that everyone knows his position and that they support it. Maybe they would if he'd take the trouble to support it himself.
I'm heartened to hear him say that victory is important, but I remain skeptical that he'll articulate why or how. Or that he'll make it happen, from his weakened position. I confess to some disillusionment with this guy. I hope events prove me wrong.
The AP got busted last week for fabricating dozens of Iraq blood and guts reports. When the war with Israel was in the news, the MSM got caught making up pictures for the camera.
Bush sees Iraq the way it is, and not the way the MSM tries to make it look.
No one, and I mean not one American citizen, really knows what's happening in Iraq. The MSM has created the images for us, but that doesn't mean any of it is real.
