You need to have an aol account to read it. Underestimating the cost of the
war, yes. Flip-flop, no.

It's on google news, too.

Bush promised to not ask for more funds this year, now he does and lowballs it
below what he knows he'll need due to election implications. Why isn't that a
deceitful flip-flop.

Seeing that nobody in the White House can predict the future, how can anyone
say how much it's going to cost? We can have pretty good guesstimates but
war is dynamic so the costs must change to match.

Because it's not what's considered a "flip-flop" as that term is used
by the vast majority of people. If you want to criticize Bush for
knowingly underestimating the cost of the war in the way that
politicians consistently underestimate the cost of everything, that's
OK by me. But if you adopt an oddball use of the term "flip-flop"
because you're PO'd about people pointing out Kerry's "flip-flop's,"
that just rhetoric.

Isn't promising you wouldn't ask for more money and then asking for more money
precisely a flip-flop? Or can that term ONLY be used against Kerry?

Why isn't that ridiculous?

How much has Bush trimmed the budget like he promised when he was running in
2000? Why isn't that a flip-flop?

How long have you been addicted to abusing? Did Bryant reject your
homosexual advances, so now you want revenge? What made you into the
twisted antisocial cretin you so want to look like?

There IS help available. Do it before it becomes a stand-off situation
between you and the minions of your police state..

I don't think he was trying to steal your boyfriend. You can have
Bryant all for yourself.
