This was on "Countdown" tonight; I had to go track it down, for it was almost unbelievable:
President Bush spoke about the war in Afghanistan during a video conference with US military and civilian personnel in Afghanistan.
"I must say, I'm a little envious," Bush said. "If I were slightly younger and not employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed. It must be exciting for you ... in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know, confronting danger. You're really making history, and thanks."
Those are the words of a true idiot, one who has no clue as to what active-duty military service, let alone combat, is like. I know of no man who has been under fire who would ever describe the experience as "romantic." Remember, he had his chance when he was younger to "be on the front lines, helping a young democracy succeed" and he ran from that as far and as fast as his father's connections could take him. But he was as interested in going off to play sojer in Vietnam as was Dick Cheney. Or John Ashcroft. Or Karl Rove. Or Bill Kristol.
Can't we get this guy fitted with a Taser Belt, so Dana Perino can administer a shock to him when he says things that are so utterly stupid and insensitive? They fitted him with a "cheating pack" during the 2004 debates, just replace the radio receiver with a shock pack. They could even run a fund-raiser; make a donation for charity and you get to administer an electric shock to Chimpy. The line to do that would be unbelievably long.
What a fucking moron we have for our president.
