You didn't really say that did you?

Mr. President,
Hey Captain Obvious, how far do you think your comments on "urging the world to halt violence over cartoons" is really going to go? Jesus, that is embarrassing even for you. Headlines like "Bush urges end to cartoon protests" just makes you sound like you are saying "The King decrees a halt to cartoon protests", and you know that won't play well in Karbala.
Condi's harping about linking Iran to the protests is also pretty transparent, abroad anyway.
The Mideast is a tinderbox junior. Are you proud of your role in making it that way? You had some help with Sharon's oppressive treatment of the Palestinians but your invasion of Iraq was a key component. Now a simple cartoon has set off a firestorm which has no end yet.
Osama has to be laughing his turban off. Isn't it odd that your aims and Osama's aims seemed to cross paths like they did? And you both won. You both created a symbiotic relationship that has shaken the world.
"Gen. Peter Schoomaker, the top Army officer, told the senators that heavy use of the Guard and Reserve has given the Army time to reorganize and prepare for its regular troops to take on a broader role beginning in March."
Could the real reason be two fold here junior? One: It is an election year and you want to offset the damage of Abramoff, Valerie Plame, Tom Delay, Katrina, etc. etc. And Two: you don't have enough National Guard troops because of continually missing the recruitment goals?
No surprise here junior, the spin was expected.
I found it kind of ironic that Lydon Johnson's legacy was on display yesterday at Coretta King's funeral.
When Johnson pushed for Civil Rights in the South, he said he knew it would cost the Democratic party the South. He was right and you are the product of that move. And so were most of the Black speakers, because without Johnson's courageous decision to do what was right for the country instead of what was good for the Democratic Party, none of you would have been there.
There is NO WAY you would have done something so courageous. That junior is the difference between you and greatness.
