1. Bush is right. You cannot win the war on terror any better then you can win the war on drugs.
2. People do not understand that and do not want to hear it.
3. Edwards is intentionally taking his statement out of context. Nothing about saying you can't "win" the war on terror admits defeat in the war on terror. Its not binary.
4. People will believe Edwards.

[ What Bush said *is* correct, but Edwards didn't take it out of context :

] "We have a clear vision on how to win the war on terror
] and bring peace to the world."

I think Edwards is being silly. Your comparison to the war on drugs is appropo. Still, I don't think Bush knows what the fuck he's talking about either. -k]
