BUSHMEN and WOODSMEN know how to cut


When our persistently dissembling Mr. Bush stoops to use the term 'cut and run' to describe those who want to end our sponsorship of the Iraq War, I am reminded of the man who could not be found for hours on 9/11, because his plane was flying him away from the crisis: He, our putative Leader, who found it propitious to advance to the rear and to stay hidden all day. I believe that is a habit he formed in his younger years -- not that I blame him for ducking the Vietnam War, only that he won't admit it.
So, when a brush cutter from Texas talks about "cut and run" I assume he is an expert. But, then so are we. [smile]
