Haha. Bush is priceless .. he doesn't even bother to backtrack and cover himself. And his statement itself, well, what does it mean? We will complete the mission, do the job but adjust to tactics? For a broad statement like that, the only adjustment can be we won't complete the job.
hell man, that raises the whole issue of defining what the 'job' is... build a stable iraq? not bloody likely while it's full of US troops...

Not unless the Iraqi military can be brought to the same strength and efficiency as the American military. The way it looks like at the moment, Coalition forces leave a town, a militia moves in, Iraqi military cries. It's going to be city-states soon, the way it goes now.
If the job is a stable Iraq how do you measure when thats been achieved? Its a bit like the question "how long is a piece of string?" or the one my students like to ask "how much do you expect us to write in the exam?"... This goes beyond getting the job done, it also includes knowing the job has been done... Bush doesn't know how to find his own arse never lone when a job has been completed.
