Today George W. Bush made a very compelling and thoughtful argument for why he
should not be reelected. In his own words, he told the American people that “…a
political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a
person you want as your Commander in Chief.

President Bush couldn’t be more right. He jumped to conclusions about any
connection between Saddam Hussein and 911. He jumped to conclusions about
weapons of mass destruction. He jumped to conclusions about the mission being
accomplished. He jumped to conclusions about how we had enough troops on the
ground to win the peace. And because he jumped to conclusions, terrorists and
insurgents in Iraq may very well have their hands on powerful explosives to
attack our troops, we are stuck in Iraq without a plan to win the peace, and
Americans are less safe both at home and abroad.

By doing all these things, he broke faith with our men and women in uniform. He
has let them down. George W. Bush is unfit to be our Commander in Chief.
