"So What?"

[via Spencer Ackerman]

[F]rom George W. Bush's exit interview with ABC's Martha Raddatz after getting shoes thrown at him in Baghdad. One of the things that Muntader al-Zaidi, a 28-year Iraqi journalist, yelled at the disgraced outgoing president as he threw his shoes in disrespect was "This is from the widows, the orphans and those killed in Iraq." And here's a perfect example of why. Look at what Bush tells Raddatz about Al Qaeda in Iraq:

Bush: This [Iraq] is where Al Qaeda was hoping to take...

Raddatz: But not until after the U.S. invaded.

Bush: Yeah, that's right. So what?

….There's two so-whats here. The first [are] the widows, the orphans and those killed in Iraq, just as al-Zaidi said, by a jihadist organization that didn't exist [there] until George Bush made a miscalculation of epic proportions. The second is that Bush just admitted there was no Al Qaeda presence in Iraq before the invasion, despite endless statements [to the contrary].

He elaborates the point, but I'm sure you get it already. What more is there to say?

George W. Bush, one of the very worst Presidents in the history of this nation and quite simply a truly awful spoiled rotten disgusting idiotic person.
