The fight we’re in

The American Prospect
by Terence Samuel

01/26/07

The president’s State of the Union plea to the Congress and the country to give war just one last chance in Iraq was actually a deft performance for a man faced with so few options for wriggling out of the corner he’s boxed himself into. Despite the tandem military and political disasters that have torpedoed his presidency, Bush on this occasion tried to lead by example, doing what he is asking of the rest of us — and, particularly, the people fighting and dying in Iraq — to do: He soldiered on, blindly, wishfully. ‘Every one of us wishes this war were over and won,’ he said in one blazing moment of truth. But wishful thinking aside, the urgent question before Congress is: What course of action — emphasis on action — will most quickly and effectively roll back the president’s state of denial and force an end to the carnage in Iraq, at least where Americans are concerned?
