W. "...wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean of the Ukraine"

[underpants]

“Russian elections are rigged. Political opponents are imprisoned or otherwise eliminated from the electoral process,” the two-term president said.

“The result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia, and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq.

“I mean of the Ukraine, heh,” the gaffe-prone Republican said while shaking his head, squinting and smirking.

“Iraq too,” he then quietly muttered before saying, “anyway … uh … 75,” an apparent reference to his age, as the crowd chuckled.

Sorry but Fox News link. Having trouble with my iPad this morning.

1. Old W looked terrible. I guess staying up late at night trying to wash blood off your hands takes

its toll.

2. Hah hah. It is to laugh.

“Heh. No WMDs here!”



My friend’s brother, an Army physician, was shot and killed in Iraq by an Iraqi-American officer who went nuts.

Had not the GOP Supreme Court stolen the election for Bush, Dr. Houseal would likely still be alive.

10. THIS

They still hunt down war criminals from WW2 - Bush confessed yesterday - there should be consequences.

3. Cant believe the pukes inflicted us with this nasty hairball

what a disgrace. LOL that his feeble booze-and-coke-fried brain accidentally coughed up the truth though.

4. Mika's reaction to that comment was priceless.

Finally. The fuckers admit they were wrong and they owe an apology to the rest of us.

5. Yeah I watched that thinking that the media was fully on board with it.

“No one wants to comment”. Telling.

[Baitball Blogger]

8. I felt carved out, back then. So many of those media people

aren't going to comment because they know what lies in the archives.

7. Apology?

A war crimes tribunal is more like it

9. I wish Obama hadn't capitulated so quickly.

Starting with Clinton's time, Republicans have launched a full out attack on Democratic presidents and their policies. But these Centrist type presidents had an Achilles Heel. They all thought they needed to compromise in order to move forward on their policies. Obama would realize that they weren't even going to do that for him, (because he was black). The ACA was the perfect example. It was actually a program started by the heritage foundation.

Bottom line, Republicans only respect tough, mean-spirited leaders. Maybe we should start going on the offensive in order to overcome the FoxNews lies network? Throw truth and consequences, because this country will always be divided until we all live by the same rules.

12. What should we do about it, specifically?

[Baitball Blogger]

13. Merrick Garland has an opportunity to do it right.

Iraq is a lost cause, when it comes to war crimes. The timing came and went. And I do believe the fact that we didn't insist on truth and correction, it allowed the Republicans to follow the insane path they have been following ever since.

14. It's all been going to shit since the Supreme Court granted Bush the election in 2000

[Baitball Blogger]

15. No disagreement there.

[NYC Liberal]

20. I'd argue it's since Ford pardoned Nixon.

That truly showed that the president is above the law.

[Walleye]

21. Yes exactly. That sowed the wind now we're reaping the whirlwind

6. Here's a Twitter link

Given the not so funny confession, I'd love to hear from the bothsideism posse.
He and his audience would not have been laughing if there were consequences for histhis war crimes.

16. piece of shit should be making his comments

From a god damn J A I L cell

[Deminpenn]

17. "The truth emerges"

as Bob Woodward likes to say.

[Mad_Machine76]

18. Ummm....oops

[Gaugamela]

19. Rachel Maddow on Air America during the early years of the Iraq war

was listening to Bush live and reacted in amazement when he called Bin Laden “a rich man’s son who sends other people’s children off to foreign lands to die”.
