If Bush Wants to Win...

...this is what he shoulda said:

My fellow Americans, I messed it up. Yes...I screwed it up worse than any oil company. And now I wanna fix it. I mean, really. We screwed up their country, so we gotta fix it. So here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna get 300,000 troops and take over Iraq. We're gonna close the borders. We're gonna take over every block in every city. We're gonna pay young Americans a boatload of bonus money and recruit them to go over there and stop this crap once and for all. And they'll be taking names and kicking ass.

For now, no more elections. We gotta build these people a society first. We're gonna build them a good and modern oil industry. We're gonna build them a decent infrastructure....schools, police stations...the works. This is no time to be building a benevolent government over there. We're gonna be their dictators for a while. But we'll give them safe streets, decent schools and hospitals.

We'll wipe the slate clean. Sunni, Shiite, Kurd, doesn't matter. Anyone who wants to work with us to build a dignified and safe Iraq is welcome. Anyone who wants to work against us will pay an ultimate price.

And that goes for Iran and Syria. Don't mess with Iraq. Stay out of it. Or, well let's just say that a sustained air campaign with planes up around 15-thousand feet won't take you down permanently, but it'll focus your attentions elsewhere. Just ask Milosevic...oh yeah...you can't.

It won't be pretty. It'll get worse before it gets better. It'll cost more money than you can imagine. But I guarantee that in a few years, Iraq will be the shining light of freedom and democracy that we set out to create four years ago.



That's what the President would have said if he REALLY wants to win. Anything short of this is a sham and a joke.
