    "It's bad in Iraq. That help?"

    Oh yes, Mr. Resident. It helps a lot. It shows us what kind of a person you are.

    Now take the logical next step: "Why is is bad in Iraq?" Could it possibly be your fault? You wanted this unnecessary war. You had no plan except "Shock and Awe" and after that it would be flowers for all the soldiers.

    "It's bad in Iraq." Do you have any idea what that means for the soldiers and their families, and for all the Iraqis?

    You are one glib and snotty SOB. But of course, we already knew that in 2000.
