President Bush is basically a nice guy, which he proved more than once when he was governor of Texas. Which, of course, is way too nice for the rude, undereducated, overmedicated slugs of the MSM. So it’s always a pleasure to see it when he cuts loose on a supercilious one with both barrels.

I confess that it makes me a little nervous to hear President Bush predict that the Iraq campaign will end in a victory. (The BBC has him already proclaiming victory, but, as we know, they are often fact-challenged.) The Dems, of course, already portray it as a defeat. Neither view seems entirely accurate. It certainly is the gentlest war this country has ever been in–fewest friendly, enemy and bystander casualties–despite lasting five years so far. I would expect it to take a lot longer, especially since we have tolerated, instead of eradicating, enemy sanctuaries in Iran and Syria. But even the media, when it is honest about it, knows the Iraqi people want us there. And it could very well turn out to be better for us, in the long run, even than bringing peace to Germany and Japan. Because, after all, Iraq’s is the region where we get much of our oil, and whatever we may think of the politics of oil, our economy and our lives depend utterly upon it.
In getting North Korea to agree to let Americans dismantle its nuclear weapons program. Of course, the MSM isn’t spinning it as a victory, just W allegedly following that foreign policy genuis John Kerry.

"The Bush Presidency is running out of time to act if it wants to stop Iran from gaining a bomb. With GIs fighting and dying in Iraq, Mr. Bush also owes it to them not to allow enemy sanctuaries or weapons pipelines from Iran. If the President believes half of what he and his Administration have said about Iran’s behavior, he has an obligation to do whatever it takes to stop it."
Less talk and more action would be a good idea, both for the present and for the future.

The porous CIA, the gang that can’t think straight, either is handing out secrets to their favorite reporters to make political hay, or this is a lie. Either way, it may get some Americans killed, as the outraged commenters note. ABC news, of course, couldn’t care less, so long as it can sell advertising.

UPDATE Power Line, which I see the Left likes to call "Power Tool," thinks Bush could have had this "leak" made on purpose, for his own reasons, but Republican prez candidate Romney is incensed.
