George W. says Matt Lauer can't win

Karl Rove forgot to include Bush in the memo. John Kerry was supposed to be the flip-flopper, not the President. But of course the Flip-Flopper-in-Chief has yet again said one thing and then its opposite. Maybe George just forgot what he believed.

In a softball interview with "Today Show" host Matt Lauer, Bush said that "I don't think you can win the war on terror." The incredible thing about the statement isn't the substance of it, but rather the idea that Bush might be admitting his mistakes. Taken a week after he admitted to making a "miscalculation" about the war in Iraq, it looked like Bush might be on the verge of a breakthrough. Could our president finally be willing to take a long, hard look at the problems we face and how his leadership has steered us wrong? Of course not. "We will win," Bush is saying now. He's sure of it.

We can definitely win the war against terrorism. You just have to look closely at what Bush said to understand his meaning. He said "you" can't win it, you know -- like Matt Lauer. The "Today Show" host can't win it. Matt Lauer can't win the war on terrorism. It takes a Bush to do that.
