8/30    Bush on terror war: "I don't think you can win it."
        Perpetual war!  Yay!
        http://csua.org/u/8tl (AP via New York Daily News)
        \_ Much like the War on Drugs and the currently unfashionable War on
           Poverty.
           \_ Ah yes, the War on Drugs.  And what a successful war it has been,
              too!
        \_ Unfortunately Bush is doing as well on the war on terror as I am
           doing on the war on stupidity...
        \_ How about The War on Phonics?
           \_ They've misunderestimated me.

Prez on war against terror: 'I don't think you can win it' THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON President Bush says staying the course in the war on terror will make the world safer for future generations, though he acknowledges an all-out victory against terrorism may not be possible. In an interview on NBC-TVs Today show broadcast to coincide with Mondays start of the Republican National Convention in New York, Bush said retreating from the war on terror would be a disaster for your children. You cannot show weakness in this world today because the enemy will exploit that weakness, he said. It will embolden them and make the world a more dangerous place. the war on terror, Bush said, I dont think you can win it. But I think you can create conditions so that the those who use terror as a tool are less acceptable in parts of the world. Bush planned to campaign Monday in New Hampshire, which has voted for only four Democratic presidential nominees in the past 100 years but is up for grabs this November. Four years ago, Bush won New Hampshire by 7,211 votes, or just a little more than 1 percentage point. While Republicans outnumber Democrats among the states registered voters, more than a third of those registered are independent. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts, who also will be a speaker at the GOP convention in New York.
