That which we call a skunk, by any other name, would still be all stank.
On April 26th Bush/Cheney began its Winning the War on Terror Tour.
ARLINGTON, VA - Bush-Cheney '04 today launched the Winning the War on Terror Tour. The tour will highlight John Kerry's troubling record on national security and his inconsistent support for our troops. Today's kick-off events in Michigan, New Hampshire and Ohio will coincide with the release of a new ad, "Weapons," that will air in various markets and on national cable stations. Additionally, a state specific "Weapons" ad will air in 9 states. The Winning the War on Terror Tour will continue throughout the next two weeks.
Sadly, the tour didn't last two weeks.
President Bush Tours Michigan and Ohio on Yes, America Can Bus Tour
ARLINGTON, VA - On Monday, May 3, 2004, President George W. Bush will begin a two-day bus tour, Yes, America Can, through Michigan and Ohio. The President will participate in events focused on the strength, optimism and resolve of the American people in meeting the tests of our time - strengthening the economy, making our communities better and keeping America safe.
This is a whole new tour, even though it's taking place at the same time the previous tour was scheduled for, and is making all the same stops. It has to be. With all that resolve Bush wouldn't change the name of his tour from Winning the War on Terror would he? Because it would really look like he no longer believes the name represents a supportable statement. You know? I mean, it would really, really look like he's abandoning the issue that he himself believed would define his presidency.
He overcame or ignored the opposition of allies, the skepticism of big parts of the American public and even the doubts of some members of his own administration. He believes the outcome will define his presidency, aides say.And he wouldn't do that, would he?
