Headline! This is currently the headline for the
top story of
Yahoo's Top Stories. It's harsh.
UPDATE: Portions of the speech have been released and Bush really did say "worth it". Excerpts of Bush's speech:
- "Like most Americans, I see the images of violence and bloodshed. Every picture is horrifying and the suffering is real."
- "It is worth it."
- "The terrorists can kill the innocent, but they cannot stop the advance of freedom."
- "They will fail."
- "The work in Iraq is difficult and dangerous."
- "We have more work to do and there will be tough moments that test America's resolve."
- "The American people do not falter under threat, and we will not allow our future to be determined by car bombers and assassins."
Looks like it's going to be a contentless speech. Amazing.

It was also the head, in huge type, on the Metro my husband picked up on the train this a.m. My first thought when I saw it was, "Wow! A great big fuck-you to George W. by the media where the world can actually see it." Maybe the worm is finally turning.
