In case you missed Prez. Dipshit's half-assed apology yesterday:
President Bush was asked: "...Which missteps and mistakes of your own [do] you most regret?" He replied:
Saying "Bring it on." Kind of tough talk, you know, that sent the wrong signal to people. That I learned some lessons about expressing myself maybe in a little more sophisticated manner. You know, "Wanted dead or alive," that kind of talk. I think in certain parts of the world it was misinterpreted. And so I learned -- I learned from that. And, you know, I think the biggest mistake that's happened so far, at least from our country's involvement in Iraq, is Abu Ghraib. We've been paying for that for a long period of time. And it's -- unlike Iraq, however, under Saddam, the people who committed those acts were brought to justice; they've been given a fair trial and tried and convicted.�
Does anyone else see the delicious irony in this statement coming the same week of the Dixie Chicks' "Not Ready To Make Nice".
*a highly recommended album I must say*
It's been three years since "The Incident" and it's taken almost 3,000 American servicemen's lives, countless innocent Iraqi lives, destruction of that country, the loss of world-wide sympathy and respect for America, the loss of an American city and $3.00 a gallon gas prices, but finally a good portion of this country is waking up from the 5-year FOG it's been under.
Natalie could and did apologize for her comment (even though she's rightfully taken it back), but I don't see any apology big enough to make amends for what Bush and his neo-con cronies have done to this country and the world.
I find it biggest irony is that he finds the biggest mistakes are about things that have happened in Iraq rather than the Iraq war itself.
All these years of Wingnuts defending his every move, for him to admit his mistakes like we've said they were all along. Haw! Haw!!!
What can you expect when his handlers turned his stubbonness into a "strength"?
And Re; The Dixie Chicks, what is the big deal about saying you're ahamed to be from the same state as Bush? That could mean a lot of things, and it certainly doesn't mean she doesn't support the troops. I think my mayor is a jackass, but I still sopport the police and fire department!
