Yes but what is Bush grew a spine, a brain and other useful organs and got up tomorrow morning and said:

1. I was wrong and we're in a pickle but we're going to fix things starting today.

2. I'm going to call for a nationwide draft for people up to 39 years old. There will be no deferrments for any reason other than medical and the first to go will be my daughters and the children of all my cabinet members, senior officials and the children of all Republican Congressmen and Senators.

3. We're going to raise a force of 250,000 to be sent to Iraq within 6 months. I'm going to veto every single spending bill and ask the Congress to cancel what we've just passed in order to fully equip all of our forces.

4. We're going to man every border crossing, every municipal police station, every inch of the highway to the Baghdad airport and we're going to bring total law and order to Iraq.

5. Once we've done this we're going to ask the international community to bring in trainers and reconstruction specialists and NGOs to build up the country's infrastructure and economy as quickly as possible.

6. Then we're leaving and taking all of our military men and women with us. We will leave a small embassy in Baghdad but we will have no other presence unless our companies are invited in by the duly elected government of Iraq.

7. Now I'm going on the last bike ride of my presidency, I'm going to cut my vacation short and I'm going back to Washington to implement all of this immediately.
