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.
