Shakespeare on Bush

News Item: President Bush said in a news conference yesterday that he did not believe Iraq had descended into a civil war. He said he remained confident, three years after the U.S.-led invasion, that his strategy will succeed.

William Shakespeare:

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
Creep in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time.
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death.
Out, out, brief candle!
Life is but a walking shadow
A poor player who struts and frets
His hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more.
It is a tale told by an idiot,
Full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
