9. Totally.
He cant' even pretend to be able to read the map. let alone comprehend what he's being told. But he'll come back and say that he's seen it with his own eyes, and things are going swell.

11. that's what I thought - those are mercenaries, right?
Why is that? Why would they have Blackwater guarding his plane? Creeps me out. Same way when I saw Paul Bremer with his Blackwater security detail. It was like, what, our U.S. troops aren't good enough for him?

25. There's no military insignia and those two are not in uniform
their shirts are different. could they be SS? Sure, but the SS doesn't usually guard the idiots plane. I thought it was normally the Marines doing the guarding.

33. Bush Surprised by Visit to Iraq, Thought He Was in Texas
L-ASAD AIR BASE, Iraq - President Bush made a surprise visit to the Al Asad Air Base in the Anbar province of Iraq Monday morning.

“Shit yeah, it was a surprise all right,” said a top White House aide under promise of anonymity. “We told him he was going to Texas. You should have seen the look on his face when he woke up and realized he was in Iraq.”

The president explained his confusion to reporters by saying he has a rough time distinguishing between "the two countries" because both are "flat and sandy and everybody hates me.”

Aides said they wanted to take the president to Iraq before the pending report to Congress on the effectiveness of the military surge so he could see the “remarkable turnaround” in the Sunni area west of Baghdad.
