Clueless One

How clueless can you get? From Dan Froomkin:

"[T]he president expressed frustration that Iraqis had not come to appreciate the sacrifices the United States had made in Iraq, and was puzzled as to how a recent anti-American rally in support of Hezbollah in Baghdad could draw such a large crowd."


George, it may have something to do with the fact you invaded and occupied their country. And you lied about why you were doing it. It may be related to the fact life in Baghdad was better under Saddam than with your puppets. It may be because they're getting blown up and assassinated daily in their streets.

Maybe, just maybe, it's because you've made them hate us.
