Saturday, November 12, 2005 Ron Fournier Op/Ed: Old & Tired Bush Playbook Read Fournier's "Newsview: Bush Revisits Campaign Playbook": Bush seems to be turning the clock back to Election Day 04 parrying with ex-rival John Kerry and harshly questioning his critics' commitment to US troops. W/ his approval ratings plunging, even some GOP leaders are showing signs of abandoning Bush's listing ship. You can't blame him for being nostalgic for better political times, when most Americans felt he was a strong, honest leader and gave him the benefit of the doubt on Iraq. Yeh, he will never stop using that same old worn out and tired playbook b/c you don't abandon the playbook, you honor the playbook by repeatedly sacrificing more from the playbook, and you only leave when the playbook has won... sigh. |
