Did Bush embolden the enemy?

warBy All Spin Zone, commenting on Bush's speech and his pledge to reduce troop levels in Iraq:

[T]his time, it seems like the Bushies really mean it. Of course this “reduction” will only bring the levels back down to where they were before Bush initiated the surge. It’s sorta like taking credit for cutting taxes by not increasing them.

The thing that truly ticks me off about this sly numbers game the Bushies are playing is the fact that we have been told ad infinitum that we mustn’t announce our intentions in Iraq because to do so would embolden the enemy, whoever that happened to be that week. Bush himself repeatedly made this assertion to tamp down the pressure to withdraw.
