George W. Bush was on the Today Show today.
During the course of talking about how we mustn’t dare end the war on terror… ever, because it’d make us look weak, he was asked “Can we win?”.
In a rare moment of candor, Bush admitted no, “I don’t think you can win it”.
Of course, just because the threat of terror hasn’t actually shrunk, and just because the US military is already stretched well past its limits, and just because civil liberties are increasingly a distant memory… and now we’re also admitting that we’re never actually going to win, that’s no good reason to stop.
I’m sure that’s one thing Bush and Kerry can agree on.
