"He’s just betting that the people outside the barricade care more than he does about the fate of those innocent bystanders." Pretty much sums it up. And remember, he is supporting the troops while dangling them over the fire.

The whole situation brings to mind what Abraham Lincoln said, in his great Cooper Union speech in 1860, about secessionists who blamed the critics of slavery for the looming civil war: “A highwayman holds a pistol to my ear, and mutters through his teeth, ‘Stand and deliver, or I shall kill you, and then you will be a murderer!’ ” Good analogy. I think the situation is equally as dire. Anyway, never mind the political calculations. Confronting Mr. Bush on Iraq has become a patriotic duty. Hear! Hear!
