The MI GOP Support Bush's War in Iraq

On his blog, the chair of that Republican Blog (that I won't link to because it is tasteless) states:

Whether we agree or disagree with the war in Iraq at this point is irrelevant-- we must finish what we started. President Bush made it clear tonight that we must continue to be vigilant and that we must also take corrective actions wherever necessary. We must provide our troops with whatever support they need- in man power, equipment, and financing.

The translation:

"Whether we agree or disagree with the war in Iraq at this point is irrelevant".
That means: "Everyone knows this war is a complete disaster."

"we must finish what we started."
That means: "We can't leave yet, defense companies haven't quite bled the taxpayers of this country dry yet. Let's give them another couple years."

"President Bush made it clear tonigh".
That means: "We know he is the worst speaker to ever inhabit the White House. And yes, he did have that 'deer in the headlights look' throughout this last speech."

"that we must continue to be vigilant and that we must also take corrective actions wherever necessary."
That means: "We have to stay in Iraq indefinitely because we have to pretend that we are tough guys and that the Democrats are sissies."

"We must provide our troops with whatever support they need- in man power, quipment, and financing."
That means: "Look, we couldn't afford to provide all those troops with bullet proof vests or armored vehicles. We spent that money on Haliburton and they have a remarkably high profit margin -- which we are certain is unrelated to the fact that Dick Cheney still runs the place and still collects a salary from Haliburton. We do support the troops. Because we need them for photo ops.


So, putting it all together, what he really said (with a few added transitional words and phrases) was:

• Everyone knows this war is a complete disaster, but we can't leave now because defense companies haven't quite bled the taxpayers of this country dry yet. Let's give them another couple years.
• We know that Bush's speech didn't present anything new or give you any confidence that this plan was different from his other failed plans.
• Afterall, he is the worst speaker to ever inhabit the White House. And yes, he did have that 'deer in the headlights look' throughout this last speech.
• But we have to stay in Iraq indefinitely because we have to pretend that we are tough guys and that the Democrats are sissies.
• Look, we couldn't afford to provide all those troops with bullet proof vests or armored vehicles. We spent that money on Haliburton and they have a remarkably high profit margin -- which we are certain is unrelated to the fact that Dick Cheney still runs the place and still collects a salary from Haliburton.
• We do support the troops. Because we need the troops for photo ops.
