Who wins in the Fallujah handover? As marines hand over the city to a new Iraqi security force, local insurgents say it's a victory over occupiers. By Scott Peterson http://www.csmonitor.com/2004/0503/p01s04-woiq.html -- Reading between the lines of such reports, it is beginning to look as though the Bush administration is completely at sea now over Iraq -- damned if it does use military force and damned if it doesn't to control the situation. As the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of our military, Myers, revealed in his embarrasing performance on ABC today, our military leadership is completely over its head and not prepared by training or inclination to carry out a brutal occupation of Iraq. Nor, I hope are the American people.
Another Monitor article intimated that Bush is now off on a 'who me?' nice guy tour to appeal presumably to the uninformed out there in the critical states. He is forever the glad handing frat president that he once was running again to get re-elected in the world's biggest one? I hate these types. They are inevitably manipulative and dishonest.
Bush tour to tap 'regular guy' appeal The president will take common touch to key swing states this week. By Linda Feldmann http://www.csmonitor.com/2004/0503/p01s01-uspo.html -- "A war is just if there is no alternative, and the resort to arms is legitimate if they represent your last hope."
