Or did I dream it...I don't think he has even uttered the word recently!

1. Freedom is on the March!!
I suppose every time he says that, it counts toward his "Weekly Iraq Speech" promise. :eyes:

4. Yep, but the first one was so laughable
They decided to bag the remaining speeches. But it wasn't a flip-flop, so stop saying that!

6. And where was the media?
I didn't hear them going on about Bush's flip flop on giving a weekly speech, then not giving a weekly speech. They just let him slide.

And what happened to the new Iraqi flag that we "gave" them? The Iraqis hated it, and it just slipped silently away, even after all the fanfare it got over here. It just disappeared without a mention. It must be nice to be George Bush and get a pass on everything you mess up.

5. It was in the runup to the "handover". . .
starting at about the time of Memorial Day and extending up the transfer of sovereignty, Smirk was going to give a weekly talk to let us know about our goals and aspirations for Iraq. The first one went over like the proverbial "lead balloon." Typical mindless Smirk nonsense that more people ridiculed than praised, so he never returned to the subject. And yet, the media insists Kerry needs to give his ideas of what needs to be done while giving Smirk a pass. What a crock.

7. Failed * promise number 234,456,101.

I'm still waiting for anything he said he'd do to come to fruition. Besides "we'll only invade Iraq as a last resort.." Oh wait a minute...
