There was nothing new in Dumbya's speech last night defending the surge, asking for more time, and "accepting" the recommendations from Petraeus that Bush himself had pre-ordained. The troops coming home are ending their 15-month extended rotations, so there was no surprise in that. It's been clear for many months that this is all about handing off the mess he created to his successor. As the NY Times editorial today said, Bush "has no strategy to end his disastrous war and no strategy for containing the chaos he unleashed." Using false information and arguments to launch the war on Iraq, he now uses false arguments to ensure that it continues after his term mercifully ends.
In the past, Dumbya has always had his father and his father's friends to bail him out in business, so that he could avoid responsibility and accountability for his actions and decisions. This time, he wants the next President to make the tough decisions on Iraq that he won't make, and shamefully wants American soldiers to pay his debts.
