The man's clearly insane

In a speech before the Joint Armed Forces Officers’ Wives’ luncheon on Tuesday, President Bush urged the nation to be more optimistic when it comes to the war in Iraq: “Some observers look at the job ahead and adopt a self-defeating pessimism. It’s not justified.” With over 2,000 U.S. military casaulties and an estimated 31,050 Iraqi deaths, one would think that President Bush could get a fucking clue about the war and the world. But what's the use of making sense if making sense isn't really your thing? “The terrorists are as brutal an enemy as we have ever faced, unconstrained by any notion of common humanity and by the rules of warfare,” Mr Bush said in a speech . . I think I'm trying to figure out how the Bush administration currently defines "the rules of warfare" or even what constitutes their "notion of common humanity"? We've got hundreds of thousands dying from AIDS and women dying or experiencing near fatal childbirth because Bush refuses to pledge U.S. money to UNFPA; Bush, et. al. were on vacation during the beginning disaster of Hurricane Katrina; the U.S. is hell bent on eradicating any rules of engagement when it comes to tackling worldwide (and national) poverty. I'm probably just confused, but none of this seems to be making any sense. What are Bush's rules of warfare? How does he explain defying the national and international rules of warfare to enter this war in the first place? And who does he have in mind when he's thinking of a common humanity? Anyone want to clear this up for me . . .
