the answer to everything

Iraq report may mean longer U.S. surge

WASHINGTON - While many in Congress are pushing President Bush to alter course in Iraq by September if not sooner, his new status report on the war strongly implies that the administration believes its military strategy will take many more months to meet its goals.

If things are going "good" then we have to stay because we are "making progress". If things are going bad, we have to stay because we can't leave while things are bad.

Why doesn't he just say "we're going to stay because i can't think of anything else to do"? I guess that would sound bad (even for bush), but obviously it's the truth. He can't be bothered to come up with an actual plan, so he'll just let us flounder over there and let more and more people die.

My gawd, what i wouldn't give for our country to have a real leader again...

(I suppose it is not a coincidence that Americablog says almost exactly the same thing)
