George Bush knows what works

Again, george Bush is in the news for giving the Deomcartic congress a lecture on how they should be doing their job. Bush was quoted again with this gem.

"Congress’s failure to fund our troops will mean that some of our military families could wait longer for their loved ones to return from the front lines. Others could see their loved ones headed back to war sooner than anticipated. This is unacceptable.”

As I already pointed out in my previous post about Bush and his great ideas, this is already happening and has been happening since he began this ill conceived war. He is falling back on lies at this point to try and shift his problem to the congress and senate rather than having it reflect poorly on himself. I dont know why he is so afraid of it reflecting on him as he is already the worst president in US history, so how can it get worse??

The real balls of his speech is that he is trying to tell congress how to do their job which basically consists of "do what I say". Thats not what congress is for, it is there to enforce the will of the people, which it rarely does, but is trying to in this case. This war is wrong and poorly executed and has been from the begining the people of the US want out. Not immediatley, not in a fashion of abandoning, but in a phased withdrawl that will allow the Iraqis to take control of their country. Until that phased withdrawal happens nothing can be accomplished.
