Entrance Strategy

I have no idea what Bush meant last night when he said "This is not the fight we entered in Iraq but it is the fight we are in."

Not the fight we entered?  Did the Devil make him invade Iraq?  What was all that speechifying in 2003 about WMDs and mushroom clouds?  Has all the carnage since then been a mass hallucination on the part of the US citizenry?

Sounds like Bush was trying to channel Churchill and got
Rumsfeld instead.

Chris Hedges, author of
"War is a Force that Gives Us Meaning," is appearing at Vroman's bookstore in Pasadena tomorrow night.  Maybe he knows what it means.
