President Bush told ABC's George Stephanopolus: "Listen, we've never been 'stay the course,' George." The new spin is that "stay the course" now means a "study in constant motion."

On Oct.11, Bush also said the following: "Stay the course means keep doing what you're doing. My attitude is: Don't do what you're doing if it's not working. Change." But then he added,"Stay the course also means don't leave before the job is done. And we're going to get the job done in Iraq." Now, what does that mean? Finding those WMDs? Provide security to a people engaged in an orgy of exacting revenge for past wrongs and who apparently regard the US as an occupier and not as a liberator?

General Pace, chairman of the JCS, said that winning now means security, good governance and a functioning economy, and predicted that terrorism in Iraq is going to be around "for the next 10, 20 or 30 years."

This is what you get when you have a President who believes God speaks through him, who gained his undergraduate degree as a C-student via a legacy admission to an Ivy League university and whose life's path has been eased by family name, connections and wealth. It's not a case of pampered rich kid doing right by the nation. It's a case of a rich kid as a malevolent incompetent.
