Eugene Robinson - A Hope That History Throws the Book at Bush and Cheney - washingtonpost.com

"The Bush-Cheney record also includes the invasion of a country -- Iraq -- that had nothing whatsoever to do with Sept. 11. This misadventure has claimed more than 4,000 American lives, wasted hundreds of billions of dollars and grievously damaged our strategic position in the Middle East. In an interview with Martha Raddatz of ABC News this month, Bush claimed credit for vanquishing al-Qaeda's forces in Iraq. When Raddatz pointed out that there were no al-Qaeda forces in Iraq until after the U.S. invasion, the president answered, 'Yeah, that's right. So what?'" (Emphasis Mine.)

How unutterably, unforgivably and unbelievably STUPID is this walking bag of donkey shit? You can answer "So what?" to a whole slew of questions, but when over 4,000 of your own citizens' lives have been lost, many thousands more damaged, and hundreds of thousands of citizens in the country you ordered an invasion to are dead or injured--WITHOUT VALID REASON--and you are the faux president of the U.S. of part of A., you are not allowed, ever, to dismiss your own cretinous idiocy and the massive pain you have caused with a blithe "So what?"
