Bush is Playing at Candor

The irony was almost overwhelming for me when Bush said in his primetime speech last night:

"To retreat before victory would be an act of recklessness and dishonor and I will not allow it."

Ironic because Bush's reckless invasion has brought dishonor on our country in the eyes many of our allies and most of the world.

Even in his newfound "candor" he hasn't acknowledged that fact. Probably because he is only as candid as opinion polls and political pressure on his agenda force him to be. I just can't give him much credit for offering come-lately crumbs of honesty when so many of us have been aware of the truth in real time.

Now about those illegal wiretaps...
