A minor issue, but it appears Mr. Pruden is repeating (inadvertently, perhaps) the 'Rat talking point about Iraq being "Bush's war".
IMHO, that's one of the sleaziest rhetorical tricks that the 'Rats use to distance themselves from their own votes to authorize the war in the first place.
It’s one of the oldest rat tricks in the book. There are still Democrat ignoramuses who call Vietnam “Nixon’s War”, even though it was their own Johnson and the monster McNamara who pumped half-a-million troops in there and Nixon who brought them home.
That scumbag John Kerry, for example, remembers fighting in “Nixon’s War” in Christmas 1968.
