Troxler taps heels too
Uh, Howard, I appreciate where you’re coming from with this sentiment, but even if W mouthed the words, why on earth would you trust him to keep his empty pledges?
I hereby promise to switch my voter registration from no-party to Republican, and to vote for President Bush's re-election, if he will give a speech something like what follows.
The wondrous and amazing land of W, where if you wish hard enough you can fool yourself into believing anything at all.
(To be fair, I should mention that Howard’s column is actually pointing out W’s cowardice and weakness of character, but seeing as it’s based on the false premise that one could theoretically believe words uttered by the most cynical and opportunistic politician in the country, I have no choice but to dismiss it out of hand.)

So, as much as I'd love to hear it, I hope he doesn't make it, and don't expect him to. Karl Rove doesn't know anything about honor.
