I think it's a good tactic. President Bush has been great in defending us against the IslamoAsshats, and the base knows it. Defending W is smart. McKennedy has been rather ambivalent about it in the past, giving qualified support while currying favor among the Democrats.

Take his "support" of the surge, for instance. He had been trashing Bush for years, demanding a larger conventional military presence in Afghanistan and Iraq, when what was needed was a change of tactics accompanied by an influx of specialized (fighting) units. Now he claims credit for supporting the surge after recommending something different as a way to trash Bush.

Mitt and Rudy are not Bush bashers.
McCrazy always has been a back stabbing cretin.

Clarification: McKennedy = McAmnesty = McLettuce

" President Bush has been great in defending us against the IslamoAsshats, and the base knows it."

This will be Bush's legacy, and it should be. It is his greatest accomplishment (so far).

I remember when McPain wanted to invade Afghanistan with 250,000 troops: ‘Bootch on the ground’.
