Pathetic

Previous remarks by President Bush on Iraq-

Aug 30, 2006: We will stay the course.

Aug 4, 2005: We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq.

Dec 15, 2003: We will stay the course until the job is done, Steve. And the temptation is to try to get the President or somebody to put a timetable on the definition of getting the job done. We’re just going to stay the course.

Apr 13, 2004: And my message today to those in Iraq is: We’ll stay the course.

Apr 16, 2004: And that’s why we’re going to stay the course in Iraq. And that’s why when we say something in Iraq, we’re going to do it.

Apr 5, 2004: And so we’ve got tough action in Iraq. But we will stay the course.

Yesterday on "This Week"-

George Stephanopoulos:
James Baker says that he’s looking for something between "cut and run" and "stay the course.
President Bush:
Well, hey, listen, we’ve never been "stay the course"...we've been — we will complete the mission, we will do our job, and help achieve the goal, but we’re constantly adjusting to tactics. Constantly.
The man is just pathetic.
