This didn't get much press last week but it is important:
Another Bushism....

"Speaking by videoconference with U.S. military and civilian  
personnel in Afghanistan about the challenges posed by war,  
corruption, and the poppy trade, the president unleashed this comment:
I must say, I'm a little envious. If I were slightly younger and not  
employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on  
the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed. It must be  
exciting for you … in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know,  
confronting danger. You're really making history, and thanks."

With Cheney claiming there was a link between 9/11 and Iraq, with  
Bush claiming war is romantic, and now with McCain getting confused  
between Sunni/Shiites in Iran and who is supporting AlQuaeda vs  
Hezbollah  is it any wonder that the rest of the world shakes their  
head when an American representative speaks about the middle east.
