    Tony Snow on Hewitt

    http://hughhewitt.townhall.com/Transcri ... c922d27712

    HH: All right. The President mentioned changing different…he didn’t use the term rules of engagement, and a lot of the callers and e-mailers to this program and on the blog, Tony Snow, want to know if we’re going to be tying hands behind back anymore for fear of PR.


    TS: No. No, as a matter of fact, we are snipping the cords and untying the hands. You know, it wasn’t merely so-called PR concerns. Even more dramatic was the fact that politicians in Iraq could get on their cell phones and call up and say stop going into Diwaniya. Stop going into Sadr City. Stop going into some place or another. Or you have arrested this person, his uncle’s a good friend of mine, you must let him go. I mean, that’s the kind of thing…you want to know why Shia militias are thriving? In part, because bad guys get caught, and they get released. There’s no consequence for bad behavior. You want to know why Sunnis are now siding with Saddam rejectionists and forming their own sort of quasi-military operations? Because they don’t trust the local police. If you get to a situation where you’re going after the bad actors, then the public can have some faith in the legal system, and in those who are supposed to keep the peace. That’s a very important thing, but you can’t do it unless you have rules of engagement that say if you’re drawing a bead on the bad guy, go get him. No more political interference.
    Let's change the scenario to the United States and change just a few words:

    No. No, as a matter of fact, we are snipping the cords and untying the hands. You know, it wasn’t merely so-called PR concerns. Even more dramatic was the fact that politicians in [Chicago] could get on their cell phones and call up and say stop going into [Cook County]. Stop going into [Waukegan]. Stop going into some place or another. Or you have arrested this person, his uncle’s a good friend of mine, you must let him go. I mean, that’s the kind of thing you want to know why [illegal aliens] are thriving? In part, because bad guys get caught, and they get released. There’s no consequence for bad behavior. You want to know why [illegal aliens] are now siding with [Reconquista] rejectionists and forming their own sort of quasi-military operations? Because they don’t trust the local police. If you get to a situation where you’re going after the bad actors, then the public can have some faith in the legal system, and in those who are supposed to keep the peace. That’s a very important thing, but you can’t do it unless you have rules of engagement that say if you’re drawing a bead on the bad guy, go get him. No more political interference.

    Good for the goose? Good for the gander? Can you see that they're running Iraq just like this place? We sent 6000 troops to the border and now we're sending 21,500 to Iraq. Sound familiar?

    George Bush war reminds me of those "fights" we had as kids. No hitting in the face.
