The Iraq War Explained In One Sentence From An Elected Official, Part 2

President Bush on Iraq, December 12th, 2005.

"I think we are welcomed. But it was not a peaceful welcome."

The sad part is, if we had a competent individual serving in the office of President Of The United States that quote would have been big news. As it is, we've become so used to an idiot President that stupidity like this can drift like a cloud for over two years before even a political nerd such as myself catches wind of it. The occupant of the nation's top office has become the recipient of the soft bigotry of low expectations. Does that make you happy?

Here's to idiocy being big news again someday soon.

"the soft bigotry of low expectations."

This makes me think of the debates between Bush and Kerry, almost four years ago. After the first debate, in which Bush performed at the level of a mildly retarded gerbil, I asked my diehard, Republican husband to tell me who he thought had won the debate. He hung his head and mumbled, "Kerry, of course." Then came the second debate, in which Bush's performance had improved to the level of a bright-eyed squirrel. Hubby spent the rest of the evening exclaiming how well Bush had done.

OBAMA '08! Puhleeeze!
