"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

It could have been a poorly worded attack on Bush's intelligence. In other words, "we're stuck in Iraq because Bush is dumb."

No, it couldn't have. It is clearly a swipe at the troops. Couldn't be more clear. Did you listen to it?

As in : "if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you'll be unqualified to do anything except be elected President of the United States"?

No way that this was a poorly worded attack on Bush. It was advice given to the audience he was speaking to ... a group of college students.

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

In the first sentence he is giving advice on how to avoid the alternative of the second sentence.

If you don't make the most of your education, don't study hard and don't do your homework you will not do well and will end up " Stuck In Iraq ".

This idiot is stuck in the 60's and 70's. Not a one the students has to go to Iraq unless they decide to volunteer.
