Bush: US must finish job in Iraq to honor the fallen
----

Isn't this the fifth reason he's given? And they called Kerry a flip-flop?

Changing it in itself, dishonors the fallen. Using Cindy as a soundbite-op dishonors the fallen.

2. So a complete and utter disaster is spun to a noble cause..
.....sigh. The more of our courageous troops that die the more honorable it is then?

War = Peace

7. More must die to honor those that have already died.
Besides, Bush can't admit he made several mistakes, so thousands more must die to cover up his failures. What a "great" guy he is.

9. All soldiers are honorable and honored when
they die in the service of their country. Countries and leaders must make sure that the causes they send our warriors off to fight for are worthy of the sacrifice. The foibles of the leaders does not denigrate the valor of the soldier one whit. But we honor soldiers most when we value their individual lives and remove them from untenable situations.

11. They wouldn't have "fallen" if you hadn't *put* them there
to "fall"!!!!

This is like tax cuts. Economy in recession; tax cuts to boost it. Economy booming; tax cuts to give back people their money.

They seem to love changing the wrong part of the equation.

People gonna kill us; send soldiers to die. People killing soldiers; send more after the first batch.

12. One kick, then off into the massive cesspool of Bush quotes.
Please meet "bring 'em on", "we will spend what we have to", and "mission accomplished". Perhaps if enough Bush quotes aggregate together, a form of primitive awareness may develop.
