Bush Deosn't Get It

Does President George W. Bush even know how dumb he really is?

"The consequences of failure are clear: Radical Islamic extremists would grow in strength and gain new recruits . . . Our enemies would have a safe haven from which to plan and launch attacks on the American people."

-President Bush's speech to the nation announcing his decision to send 20,000 more troops to Baghdad, January 10,2007
--------------------

". . . The risks are far greater that Iraqi Shiites and Kurds would end up fighting Sunnis, if not each other. Iranian influence would grow. Sunni nations would intervene . , . The primary risk is civil war with broad regional implications, not a Sunni extremist victory."

-Anthony H. Cordesman, senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, analyzing Bush's speech in The New York Times, January 12, 2007
