Laura Ingraham, author of "Shut up and sing," now says Iraq war was a mistake

Pity she demonized any celebrity who spoke out and tried to stop the biggest blunder in U.S. foreign policy history.

Plenty of folks, from retired generals to UN weapons inspectors, knew Dubya's case was a farce, but she tried to trivialize the opposition as bunch of know-nothing actors and singers.

Of course, being a rightwing pundit means never having to say you're sorry, and she'll continue to get a platform in radio and TV to keep on being wrong about everything. She'll attack Jeb, but will never own up to her part in cheerleading the disaster.

Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham dropped the hammer on former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) on Monday after the likely presidential candidate said he would invade Iraq again, knowing what we know now.

"You can't still think that going into Iraq, now, as a sane human being, was the right thing to do," Ingraham said on her radio show.

"If you do, there has to be something wrong with you," she added.

1. My contempt for this swine s**t runs deep.

My contempt for the greater country music establishment runs just as deep too.

2. Oh drats! A half million innocent Iraqis dead,

the social and physical infrastructure of the country destroyed, the spread of the war to Libya, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, ...., with hundreds of thousands more dead, the entire ME in flames.

Pity. But what the hell. "Those barbarian Arabs with their 7th century ideas, they're just not ready for freedom, democracy, and western values - so it's their fault."
