"stay the course"

Bush lied again, claiming that his Iraq policy has “never been” one of “stay the course.” Billmon shows at Whiskey Bar why, as usual, Dubya is full of shit: he lists eighteen separate instances where Bush himself used the phrase “stay the course” in reference to occupation of Iraq.

update (10/24 @ 10:39am)
Here is a great YouTube clip putting the audio and video of Bush’s own recitations of “stay the course.” (Thanks to DU for the tip.)

update 2 (10/24 @ 11:05pm):
Tony Snow claimed that Bush only used the phrase “stay the course” eight times, but ThinkProgress has documented thirty instances.
