So, the wires today are reporting this:
Bush: US must resist temptation to quit Iraq
President George W. Bush on Saturday urged Americans to resist a temptation to retreat from Iraq but Democrats pressed him to offer a plan for drawing down U.S. troops and warned Iraq was moving closer to a civil war.
On the eve of the third anniversary of the launch of the war, Bush acknowledged setbacks and the prospect of more bloodshed in Iraq, where bodies are piling up amid waves of sectarian violence.
If I ran the media, I'd sum it up in one simple headline:
Bush to Iraq: "I wish I could quit you."
