I take it back

Americanlogic is humbled. Apologies are in order to thinkprogress.org for bringing to attention one of the most humiliating television peformances ever by a sitting president.

Speaking to a group of American troops, Bush was a mixture of confusion, indifference and his usual folksy crap. These troops deserved better than to be sitting in front a camera and speaking to one of the most poorly prepared politicians of all time. Whoever thought this was a good idea for the president to appear disoriented while discussing the goals of a premptive war needs to be fired. Pronto. Americanlogic thinks the Bushies think we're dumb.

And then there's Baghdad Scott McClellan, the most sanctimonius press secretary we've ever seen. If you didn't see the tape, he basically had a tantrum. All veteran journalist Helen Thomas could do is shake her head in shame as McClellan walked off all huffy.

We face a focused enemy bent on winning in Iraq and PR trumps a new course of action?
