no... bush never reevaluates the circumstances of a situation he only barely thunk through in the past. He just jams his heels into the ground and follows through as if this behavior is indicative of some sort of resolve.

Pres Bush uses decision-making method practiced by all effective CEOs. He assembles as much info as possible regarding the issue, studies it, asks opinion of others, and in a timely manner makes the often difficult decision. John Kerry studies the problem, asks others opinion including the UN & every European country, struggles with the possibility his decision might result in political damage...then decides to vote "yes" the 1st time and "no" the 2nd(or vice versa) in an effort to neutralize political damage. Kerry's method is a recipe for disaster for the USA.

<Isn't that applicable to Bush?>

Absolutely not.

What is happening now, politically, inside the United States has happened in similar ways many times in history. It has always come about because the ruling political power in the land had launched itself upon a massive project and then, about half way to its chosen destination, that same political power found that it actually stood with insufficient means in hand with which to reach and gain what it had originally aimed at. Such is today the real political situation of the Bush Administration. It cannot go backwards, it cannot retreat militarily from Iraq. The huge political debacle that would cause inside the United States would be mind boggling because to so do would amount to saying that they were wrong.

The Bush Administration also cannot go forward, politically, militarily or otherwise. They simply don't have the means to do. That fundamentally means that in political terms, the greatest and now the fastest growing danger to the Bush Administration is the American PUBLIC.
