Iraq insurgency: Bush's rhetoric of "tough"
OK, you want to read my sympathetic post on the guy, go back.
Snark.
Mode.
ON!
From Dear Leader:
Where to begin? Who ever said toughness was the essential here? Has being "tough", all by itself, ever done any good? Don't honesty and intelligence count? I don't care if the President is a wuss or fucks goats, as long as he leaves the country in better shape than he found at—and at this Bush has been a miserable failure
Bush is confusing being tough with being vicious. We all know Bush is vicious and vindictive toward those he sees as enemies: McCain, Plame, Iraqi insurgents—it's all the same to Bush.
But Bush, tough? When he just got rolled on the PDB? I don't think so.
Snark.

From Dear Leader:
We're plenty tough and we'll remain tough.
