W actually MOVED MURTHA - KERRY'S WAY today, while denying he was doing it

[blm]

Even though he wrapped up his words in stoic and unflinching giftwrap, Bush actually moved left on Iraq when you take his words in total.

I doubt the media will acknowledge it, but Kerry and Murtha have forced BushInc to lower their expectations now and move backward AWAY from the spreading democracy plan.

It obviously wasn't a full recognition that they are right, but, Bush moving left on this at all is a sign that BushInc was weary of their own position.

1. I disagree, in fact just the opposite

when Ann compton asked her question:

Senator Kerry want a time table for troop withdrawals, while Senator Clinton was booed the other day because she didn't agree with a time table, how do you feel about it mr. president?

he agreed with Senator Clinton, no timetable

[blm]

2. Of course he denied it - I said so in my post - But he retreated from his

former entrenched position, and lowered the expectations to just where Iraq officials can function - adopting some of Kerry's language while pretending he wasn't.

3. Are we fighting terra, or enabling democracy,

or establishing dominance in the Middle East?
