Bush said the war in Iraq will go down in history as only a comma.
 

I wonder does the parents of the troops whose children were killed or wounded agree w/ that assessment, this just proves how much of a (F)ing idiot Bush really is. Maybe if Bush and side kicks Dick & Rummey had fought a war instead ducking and hiding he would have the sense and honor not to make such a stupid statement.

Man, it would really be awesome if uninformed people attempting to act like political pundits would quit starting threads with the sole purpose of deriding our president...

I wish stupid neo-cons would quit trying to devert attention from the real issues like I said Bush stated that the war in Iraq would go down in history as a comma...now disprove that....or disprove the fact that Bush quit the air reserves....or the fact that Dick abused the deferment program.

You mean that it is part of a larger war on terror, which is what Bush was referring to? I'm sorry, I guess they don't include context when giving you the democratic talking points huh. Why don't you read the Washington Post for a week or two, then come back and try again.

Bullsh*t. The war in Iraq according to Bush is the center peice in the war on terrorism at least thats what he said in the defense of the war, now that it has turned into a disaster it will go down in history as only a comma? The fact that Iraq was attacked in response to the worst terrorist attack in America's history (which by the way Iraq had nothing to do with.).. only a fool would think that the world would see this war as only a comma in the war on terrorism.

I'd advise you to read "Bush at War" by Bob Woodward, since you obviously know absolutely nothing about the lead up to the war in Iraq. So many liberals throw around claims that Bush was like "well this is our excuse, lets go..." which obviously wasn't what happened. Bob Woodward is no fan of the administration, but its a good book...and probably a better place to get your information than Michael Moore's blog.

Read worst then watergate by John W. Dean .(see there is always somebody w/a book) Bottom line is the facts are the facts Iraq had nothing to do w/ Sept 11th yet over a hundred and thirty thousand Iraqis are dead, over 2,600 American lives have been lossed and many more are wounded. All b/c our idiot president went after the wrong nation instead of going hard after Bin-Laden, then the fool has the gall to say that this mess will go down in history as a comma...even Generals are bashing Bush on his screwups on the Iraq war...or shall I say the comma.

You must be referring to the war in Iraq, which the majority of democrats voted for...so "all b/c our idiot president" is completely false.

You neo-cons are always coming w/ that crap b/c you can't defend against the fact it was Bush and his henchmen who scared people into this war. Iraq is a lost cause yet Bush wants to stay the course.....which is easy for him to say since he doesn't even know the meaning of fighting for his country. I quess that explains why he believes this war will go down in history as a comma.

So you're telling me that democratic senators on the intelligence comm. were "scared" into going to Iraq? Liberals are always like "We were misled!" well, if they were misled, that just shows how idiotic they are...considering they had access to most of the classified information we used to go to war...I like Bush, but I don't think he has the ability to mislead anyone. If anyone is being deceptive, its the left lying consistantly to the American people about Bush's involvement in 9/11, Iraq war, hurricane Katrina, gas prices, its simply amazing. Yes, Bush wakes up every day and punches in the price of gas. Its a GOP election ploy. Ohhhh the stupidity.

With absolutely no sources, this thread is completely ridiculous.

I noticed you have yet to defend Bush calling the war in Iraq a comma.

I have yet to see a source for this comment.

I could say that Clinton called 9/11 an insignificant speck of dust, but it doesn't mean he actually said it.

The comment was not for you but since you responded, Bush made the comment that the Iraq war would go down in history as a comma in an interview w/ Wolf Blitzer on CNN.

Go look for yourself. He's obviously referring to this period in Iraq as "just a comma" when people in the future look at Iraq's history. Its not in any way offensive or demeaning. It may not have been the best choice of words, but I wouldn't even call it a poorly chosen phrase.

Typical liberal attempting to make a completely benign statement into something it isn't.
