The Republicrooks are unbelievable. Their morals tsar (Bennett) is a degenerate gambler, their top media whore is a druggie, racist, draft dodger and 3 times divorced, their lead speaker at the convention would be unknown today if he hadn't used steroids and the guy co-sponsoring the anti-gay marriage amendment has been outed. Their war President ran away during Vietnam and ran away on 9/11. But they fool a lot of people, and not all of them are stupid.

Bush "clarified" his "we cannot win" declaration on Rush yesterday: President George Bush told conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh this morning that he could have been clearer when he said in a TV interview that ``I don't think you can win'' the war on terror. The remark has been seized upon by Democrats to show Bush as being defeatist and flip-flopping from previous predictions of victory. "I should have made my point more clear," Bush said in a telephone interview. "What I meant was this is not a conventional war. It's a different kind of war. We're fighting people who have got dark ideology that uses terrorism as a tool. They're trying to shake our confidence, shake our will....You can not negotiate with these people. In a conventional war there would be a peace treaty or a moment where somebody one would sit down and say 'we quit.' That's not the kind of war we're in. That's what I was saying.'' Bush said he believes freedom can transform societies, and is doing that in Iraq and Afghanistan. "And those free nations, in the heart of the Middle East, will begin to transform that region into a more hopeful place, which will be detriment for these terrorists to recruit," he said. "That's what I was saying. I probably needed to be a little more atriculate." startribune.com
