Speaking in Dallas this afternoon, former President George. W Bush made a significant verbal slip-up while discussing the war in Ukraine.

He tried referencing what he described as the “wholly unjustified and brutal invasion” — but said Iraq, instead of Ukraine.

going to war with Iraq was the right thing. Sending in our GROUND troops was the wrong thing.

We should of bombed them back to the stone age from 1000 miles away. And turned a couple of their terrorist strongholds into glass.

My father used to say that an intelligent man can act as an idiot but an idiot can’t act as an intelligent man, GW Bush is Exhibit A of this saying.

Embarrassing for you ‘W’!

Everybody laughs at you.

His portraiture of dogs is unbelievably awful. He has zero skills as a painter. He ‘d be better off painting houses. He voted for Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Turns out W was a puppet to the establishment during his presidency. Told what to say and do by Rove.

Too stupid to run things on his own.

Unfortunately, the "liberals" were right about G. W. Bush--the "clock-that's-not-working" phenomenon.

It's a blessing that the Bush Dynasty is now in the trash dump of history where it belongs.

He probably hasn’t set foot on that property since leaving office. No more photo ops needed.

The man is still, and will always be, tortured by this decision. Even in his old age, it haunts him. He will always suffer, because he made the decision.

He greeted the wounded and the families of the dead personally when he could. He supported veterans almost universally. He did what he could to help the Iraq people.

This is how a person should feel after starting a war, then finding out maybe it wasn’t necessary. Tortured. He thinks he made a mistake, or maybe could have done things better. Doesn’t matter if anyone could have done it better, or it may have been the right thing to do, that’s really a different debate. No matter what, it’s a heavy burden on his soul.

IMHO, Putin will have none of these feeling, unless he gets he gets utter defeat and humiliation.

Yeah, sure.

That’s why he’s pushing for another “heavy burden” on his soul.

If you were right, he would stay silent, at the very least.

He isn’t burdened at all, yet. Someday...

Me too.

This idiot is the one who finally woke me up to American politicians.
-99.8% of them entirely rotten and corrupt at their core.

He came off as barely more prepared than Biden.

What a disaster Bush Jr was.

It was a stupid war, but it could have gone the same way as the first, with a clear victory and formal surrender. No decades long occupation needed. But Junior ignored the example of his daddy and decided he was going to build a new nation from a civilization that existed thousands of years before us. Bush chose de-nazification, err, de-baathification, occupation and nation building.

He should be tortured. And it should be more than just the American deaths that haunt him. It was an unnecessary war, no more justified than Russia’s war in Ukraine. Such an appropriate slip of the tongue.
