Go Obama!

Obama blasts the Bush spin on Iraq

In all the excitement yesterday we almost missed this. Could it be that someone has actually exposed the fact that Bush doesn't have a "plan for victory" beyond just saying the words? Obama nails it. The Bush administration does slogans, public relations and spin. They don't have a serious plan in Iraq beyond that:

"This idea," Obama said, "that somehow if you say the words 'plan for victory' and 'stay the course' over and over and over and over again and you put these subliminal messages behind you that say 'victory' and 'victory' and 'victory,' that somehow people are not going to notice the 2,400 flag-draped coffins that have arrived at the Dover Air Force Base."

The Bush team wants to stay the course. What course? Democrats need to change the course.
