Bush to America: You're expecting too much progress in Iraq. It's only been a couple months.

The problem we have here is that George Bush has lied to the American people about every single aspect of the Iraq war. Why should we start believing him now?

U.S. President George W. Bush, faced with growing calls to start withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq, pleaded with Americans on Saturday for patience and cited progress in the past two months.

"The success of the past couple of months have shown that conditions on the ground can change -- and they are changing," he said in his weekly radio address. "We cannot expect the new strategy we are carrying out to bring success overnight."

A couple of months? It's been four and a half years.

I'm starting to get the feeling that Bush is like Effie in Dreamgirls when she belts out the show stopper "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going." Bush is telling us he's not leaving Iraq. No matter what anyone tells Bush, he's going to see progress in Iraq -- and he's not going.
