Bush's flip-flop stances: All nicely spelled out here!

[xyboymil]

"..Bush has flipped and flopped with the best of them. As a presidential candidate, he declared himself implacably opposed to nation-building. Now we are engaged in building Iraq and Afghanistan. In Iraq, the cost has been not merely a ton of money, as it was in Haiti and other places Bush said he wouldn't go, but nearly a thousand American lives lost and countless more ruined. Mind you, with weapons of mass destruction all but declared a mirage in the desert, the new -- and sole -- justification for the war is not anything approaching self-defense but getting rid of Saddam Hussein and his regime. This is nation-replacement and nation-building, a total rehab project.

6. Here's another good Bush flip-flop

I think it was during the 2000 campaign. Bush was in Michigan and somebody asked him about the right wingers in the Michigan legislature who had taken over the public schools in Detroit. The questioner asked Bushie how that jibed with his calls for "local control" of schools. Bush replied, "That's what I mean by local control. Having the states in charge". (or words to that effect). Good one Georgie. Running the Detroit schools from 100 miles away, by people that aren't from Detroit is a perfect example of "Local control".
