I heard this on NPR this morning: 'When asked 'Can we win?' the war on terror, Bush said,'I don’t think you can win it. 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.'

This is one of the most honest things that I've ever heard Bush say about the War on Terror(ism), and it speaks to one of the main reasons I think it's simply dishonest to call it a War at all. What makes me sad is that I know, and you know it to, that if Kerry said this, this inherently true thing, the press would simply fucking savage him.
