"By releasing a new strategy to fight terror, the administration acknowledges that its previous strategy has failed to make America safer. The president has squandered the opportunity to unite the country and the world, instead he has divided both.
"The administration's most profound strategic mistake was not finishing the job in Afghanistan � which everyone agreed was the central front in the War on Terror � and rushing to war in Iraq, which was not. Today, Afghanistan is on the brink of collapse and Iraq on the verge of chaos. In addition, five years after 9/11, each member of the so-called 'Axis of Evil' is more dangerous; terrorist attacks around the world have nearly quadrupled; the administration's simplistic equation of democracy with elections has helped empower extremist groups like Hezbollah and Hamas; and Katrina and the 9/11 Commission have made it clear we are not prepared for an attack here at home.
"The administration's new strategy seems to adopt many of the critiques Democrats made about the old one. I hope today's change in rhetoric represents a real change in course." |
If you can show that anything in the bolded portion is false, I invite you to do so. Otherwise, it is clear we are looking at a president who, despite having had 5 years to fight terror with a populace that supports him and his party in near-total control of the federal government, has failed miserably.
If he were a Democrat with this exact same record, conservatives would be calling for his head. |

| If he were a Democrat, he'd already have been impeached and been put on trial for treason. |

| Well, in fairness it should be noted that his administration has probably been distracted by the high-priority mission of trying to find a mate for Condoleeza Rice ... |
