White House is cutting and running from "stay the course."
Excellent round up of the much deserved slamming Bush is getting for trying to weasel out of his stay the course BS from Josh:


...
"Like I wrote earlier today, the president has run this war like a confidence game. And as you would expect, that's led to a bubble. The support is tough but brittle. Any move off the absolutes, with us or against us, stay the course vs. cut and run, and the whole thing starts to crack. Once the White House comes out for pragmatism and flexibility, that leaves them perilously close to embracing reality itself. And that, of course, is like the kryptonite of Bush's superherodom. After that, the deluge."

1. I wish some WH journalist (sic) would phrase a question like your
subject line to Snowballs.

2. Quick, pull your flip-flops out of the closet
and follow little Georgie and his minions around the country yelling "Flip-Flop, Flip-Flop" just like they did to Kerry all through 2004.
