Dim-Son Bush BASHES his FATHER on allowing Kurds to be slaughtered
Just so *everyone* knows, I watched the video in this thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x810571

and wanted to point out that George W. Bush said THIS on August 3, 2004 in his (comedic and legendary) speech to minority journalists:

"One of the biggest fears many Iraqi citizens have is that we're not a country of our word...and they're fearful that the United States will once again say something and not mean it. I say "once again," because you might remember at different times during Iraqi history they were -- they believed they heard something, in terms of U.S. support, and it didn't happen. And then there was a lot of death as a result of unfulfilled expectations."

Poppy Bush encouraged Kurds and Shiites to revolt during the Gulf War of 1990-91. His administration promised support. When they did try and revolt, Bush broke his promise of support and let them be SLAUGHTERED by Saddam.

1. Like father, like son, killing Iraqis en masse,
just different modus operandi!

2. Yes, a lot of death as a result of unfulfilled expectations.
or "miscalculation" by some estimates.

4. Sad thing is....
if RIGHT NOW you sat down Dim-Son, Cheney, Rumsfeld & Wolfowitz, not ONE of them would probably know.
