i offered a schematic explanation earlier in the thread for this, pan, but it was greeted with feigned incomprehension and i reacted by growing bored with the thread.
rove's speech is not about an accurate representation of anything to do with iraq--it is about trying to redraw the line that seperates conservativeland from other spaces, conservatives from other folks, in an effort to find some way to slow the massive leaks in the pollratings of bushworld with reference to iraq.
it was a warm-up act for the charade you will see tonight from fort bragg, during which cowboy goerge will try to same thing.
nothing whatsoever to do with an accurate portrayal of the situation in iraq--but you see this thread as a demonstration that core conservatives operate best in the context of wholly distorted understandings of the war, that their arguments require wholesale distortion to even make sense.
