"Yesterday Mr. Bush, who took a "winning the war on terror" bus tour just a few months ago, conceded that "I don't think you can win" the war on terror. But he hasn't changed the national security adviser, nor has he dismissed even one of the ideologues who got us into this no-win situation. Rather than concede that he made mistakes, he's sticking with people who will, if they get the chance, lead us into two, three, many quagmires."
This comes from a larger Op-Ed in the NYT, entitled "A No-win Situation."

Note how he is not necessary or mandatory that we buy into the neo-conservative propaganda of perpetual war on Terra in order to criticize the presidents remarks yesterday, call him on his flip flop, or expose his ineptitude.
