GW Bush sees Iraq through political spin in a vain attempt to save his legacy, while remaining manipulatively silent on the fact that he went into Iraq for WMDs that were never found, that thousands have died, tens of thousands were displaced and left homeless, and that there are those who are still living in fear, with anger or vengeance, all as a consequent of his lack of wisdom, intellect, judgment and vision to govern successfully, to bring peace to all nations and prosperity to all peoples. Today, the world is a more dangerous place, compounded by the economic turmoil which he could not have foreseen only because of his stupidity and his weakness of character, falling prey to those ruthless and greedy cronies he placed in positions of power. He is an unrepentent idiot, an alcoholic, a knee-jerk, ideological warmonger and one who knows no shame. What is truly sad is that he seems entirely oblivious of his faults. Perhaps it's about time he has another conversation with God, to get instructions on how to fix his mess in the remaining days that he is nominally the United States president.
In that God-forsaken, lame capacity, he went to Baghdad.
"For the first time in Iraq's history and really the first time in the region, you have Sunni, Shia and Kurds working together in a democratic framework to chart a way forward for their country," he said. See http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/12/14/bush.iraq/index.html
He forgets that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. How convenient.
He is also too dumb to realize that it is far more critical for him in his capacity as a leader to work with the Shia in Iran "to chart a way forward" than to waste time putting a political spin on his bloody mistake in Iraq, his "baby" from hell. But then again, I doubt he ever understood fully the qualifications of the job, its intricacies, or its burdens which he is, even after carrying them for almost 8 years, wholly unprepared to assume.
In his final days. he is continuing to demonstrate his utter failure as leader of the executive branch to solve the problems of the economic meltdown and his utter failure as commander-in-chief to finish an unnecessary war he unilaterally started in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan that he largely neglected.
