I believe that the "surge" was just another brilliant strategic move by GW to outflank the Dhimmis.

Although we have consistantly made progress in Iraq, it is too slow to conclusively shove the Dhimmi's noses in, and it's too subjective for our side to crow about. The end result has been a target-rich environment for the anti-American whiners in the Dhimmicrat Party and their agent provocateurs the drive-by media to sow the seeds of discontent amongst a fickle audience.

The Bush administration sees that they can't win in a head-on battle with these morons, so they devise a dodge - a classic red-herring. Proposing the surge draws all of the thimble-heads like Murtha, Pelosi, Durbin, and Biden out from under their rocks. It also shines the light of day on our internal enemies like Hagel, Paul, and Warner. It buys him critical time to prosecute the war relatively unimpeded while the nit-wits are busy showing off for the cameras, and it allows us to demonstrate the contrast between the cut~n~runners and those who really see the necessity to continue this fight.

GW is going to win on this surge thing. He has the prerogative, the law and the moral imperative on his side. Long after the Dhimmis have slinked (slunk?!) away, there will still be the sour stink of their cowardice remaining.

How is it that "History's worst President" consistently runs circles around the worlds self-styled "smartest party"?!

Excellent! You sum it up quite well, in a easy to understand(even for me!) definition of a classic rope-a-dope.

Great post and right on, IMO. You summed it up quite well.
