Wow. Bush is studying up on the war he started. That's good Jr. What's next? Advanced brush-clearing... And check this 'snowjob' out. My head is spinning...I heard that Snow used the phrase 'move forward' eleven times at today's press gaggle. Keep repeating, somebody may believe it. (Did P.T Barnum say that? Or Cal Worthington maybe?)
"The White House spokesman, Tony Snow, acknowledged today that Mr. Bush had wanted to deliver his speech before Christmas. But he said it would be wrong to interpret the delay as a sign of presidential indecision.

“That would be the wrong inference to draw,” Mr. Snow said. “It’s a complex business, and there are a lot of things to take into account.

“You would expect and desire a commander in chief, in looking at a situation, to examine military concerns, security concerns, diplomatic concerns, internal political concerns within Iraq, regional ramifications, how you get people to work in concert with one another,” Mr. Snow said. “It is enormously complex.”

Mr. Snow said the president continues to get the best advice possible. “And so, as he considers the options, he’s not going to get rushed on it,” Mr. Snow said. “He wants to make sure it’s done right.” "
