New rules for stating the obvious
Liberty For All

George Bush recently described America's performance in the Iraq War like this: 'We're not winning, we're not losing.' This means we're losing. ... It's nice of George Bush to finally kind of, sort of admit what most of us have already known about Iraq for several years. Unfortunately, his remarks were designed to sound somewhat courageous, as if he was saying, 'Look, I was wrong about the weapons. I'm not sure why we invaded. This war is hard. And to be quite honest, it may well have been a mistake.' Instead, what George Bush is saying is basically this: 'I have to state the obvious now. I have no choice but to state the obvious because people are seriously starting to doubt my grip on reality'...
