"Removing Zarqawi is a major blow to Al Qaida," Bush said. "It's not going to end the war. And it's certainly not going to end the violence. But it's going to help a lot."

1. Troops in Iraq
Did Bush mention the permanent military bases over in Iraq. thats an indication we ain't going no where. I'm glad i did my military time between 1978 to 1992, and 1992 to 1998 National Guard. these military men and woman are screwed with this administration.

2. "Not clear." The way your parents used to mean "We'll see."
It give an open-ended period to do whatever the hell they wanted, while giving you hope it may go your way.

But it never really did, did it?

3. You know, when speaking of this whole mess
I think if we stated it differently maybe we could get someone's attention.
Better stated, Mr. Bush is saying "it's not clear when we are going to stop spending a $100,000.00 a minute in Iraq".......
