There's a problem here, Georgie

President Bush lamented the deaths of 14 Marines in Iraq Wednesday, calling the deadly attack a ''grim reminder'' America is still at war.
''These terrorists and insurgents will use brutal tactics because they're trying to shake the will of the United States of America. They want us to retreat,'' Bush told some 2,000 state lawmakers, business leaders and public policy experts gathered here.


Not the will of the United States of America, Georgie. Yours.

''Make no mistake about it,'' Bush said. ''We are at war.''


Enjoy your vacation, Georgie. Try not to think too hard about the men and women who are dying because of you--and no one else. When do you suppose the Republican party lost every last bit of shame?

He said the families of fallen troops can know that the United States government will ''honor their loved ones' sacrifice by completing the mission.''


I am fortunate enough not to have any loved ones who have served or are serving, much less any of the fallen. Knock wood. But if I had, I have to think those words would be cold comfort. What, you mean you're going to send even more troops to die FOR NOTHING? Woo!
