Ummmm.... more "progress"

As Reuters puts it:

U.S. President George W. Bush said on Thursday he was making "good progress" in coming up with a fresh strategy on Iraq, as he met with top advisers at his Texas ranch. ...

"Success in Iraq is vital for our own security," Bush said. He said he was "making good progress towards coming up with a plan that we think will help us achieve our objectives. As I think about this plan, I always have our troops in mind." He said that he has "more consultations to do" and said his administration would be speaking with members of Congress.

I wonder if that's the same "progress" he described 20 days ago: "I know that progress has not been so rapid ... I am disappointed by the pace of success."

He does know that "progress" is movement forward, not just around in circles or even backwards, doesn't he?
