I guess he has a lot of transferrence.
The more I think about that statement, the more pissed I become. I would love to hear the full quote.
Even the most leftist of the libs in Congress do not/will not say that.
What he is saying is that we have sent our men & women into harm's way to protect a bunch of assholes.
2000 troops have died to protect a bunch of asshioles.
It does not matter whether or not Saddam is gone because he was a madman dictating a bunch of assholes
The broader question is why does Joe have this opinion of the Iraqis? Who in Iraq is not good news for Joe?
The article states:
He referred to the Iraqis as "assholes," and Saddam Hussein as a "madman."
He added he received support for this view from former President George H.W. Bush and former National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft.
Is this a poorly written article in terms of construction or did Joe actually imply George HW Bush shared the asshole opinion?
Normally I would say a poorly constructed article, but knowing Joe Wilson's sleaze factor, I would not put anything past him.
Regardless, the statement He referred to the Iraqis as "assholes," needs alot of exposure and we would be doing well to bring that quote to the attention of many who can expand on it.
