The list of flops and flips grows.....
Here's the latest (and quite possibly the best): "We have a clear vision on how to win the war on terror and bring peace to the world." http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,127583,00.html Okay. I’m with ya. War against terrorists is clear, victory is certain. Sounds good coming from a "strong" leader. So anyway, that was last month. Yesterday, Mr. Bush reaffirmed that strong stance against terrorism and certain march to victory: "I don’t think you can win [the war on terror]. But I think you can create conditions so that the — those who use terror as a tool are — less acceptable in parts of the world.” http://www.nydailynews.com/front/bre...p-195190c.html Whoops! Hmmm. I dunno. What would that qualify as? A flip? Or a flop? Or maybe a floop? W4FQF Polly |

I dunno. What would that qualify as? A flip? Or a flop? Or maybe a floop? It looks very much to me like a clipped quote. The original is really weaselly; it tries to make it look like they asked him what it would take to win the war on terror, but if you look closely, the war on terror wasn't mentioned in quotes, just after the fact. What they asked him was, "Can we win?", according to their own quotes. But somehow I have the feeling we'd have heard something entirely different had we been there at the time. -- John Kerry walks into a bar. The bartender says, "Why the long face?" |
