It is not a clever remark. It is what George Jr said to his staff right after he became governor of TX. We know George Jr has problems with facts. Do you also?

Which is exactly the same reasoning used to promote the criminal actions of Richard Nixon. After all, we were at war even with Cambodia and Laos. Therefore we had to kill students at Kent State who were so unpatriotic as to even be in the vicinity of a demonstration.

Patriotism is about advancement of the nation and its people. Not about following that mental midget president into mindless lies, unsubstanicated war, violations of the Geneva Convention, massive debts, a stagnant economy, perversion of science, promotion of religion by the government, and - this is the damning part - not even going after the real enemy of America (bin Laden if you have not yet forgotten who the terrorist is). The mental midget president could not even be bothered to attack, neutralize, or capture the enemy who attacked America. The war on terrorism is in Afghanistan (or maybe inside Pakistan). So what are we doing in Iraq? That is not a war. That is an occupation - or the liberation of people who did not want to be liberated. Anyone who confuses the unjustified Iraq invasion with a war on terrorism clearly uses about the same amount of intellect as the mental midget president - or loves to agree with outright lies.

This mental midget president has so mismanaged even the unilateral invasion and occupation of Iraq. Billy Kristol (editor of the Weekly Standard and a principle of the Project for a New American Century) who had originally promoted the Iraq invasion even says this administration has screwed up the occupation of Iraq. Lets not forget the war we forgot to win - the one that every nation in the world said was a justified invasion. George Jr still has no plans to win the real war on terrorism - Afghanistan. Maybe god only talks to governors; not presidents?
