George W.

He’s out of aces and holding only garbage. He’s a lame duck with historically low approval ratings and losing more of his team every week. But he continues to play Democrats into buying his every bluff.
Democrats say they demand change in Iraq. But they haven’t denied Bush a single penny to continue on his present course. Under a Democratic Congress elected to end the war, more American troops now risk their lives in Iraq than at any time since the invasion.
Democrats tell their constituents they oppose Bush’s “surge.” Then they dine on lobster bisque in the Green Zone, visit Baghdad carpet stalls under the guns of Marine platoons and return home to announce the surge wasn’t such a bad idea after all.
Democrats say we must let Iraqis have Iraq back. Then Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Carl Levin, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, call for the removal of the first democratically elected Prime Minister of Iraq. Perhaps they think calling for the American ouster of another Iraqi leader makes them look as tough as Bush. It certainly makes them look as stupid. An American override of Iraqi election results would be an escalation of our involvement in Iraq far eclipsing Bush’s military surge.
Well, loser over pathetic I would take anyday.
