Bush Rhetoric on Russia Mocks his Invasion of Iraq

How ironic that George W. Bush finds fault with Russia's interference in Georgia but cannot see how it mirrored his actions in Iraq in March 2003.

Here is what George Bush said this afternoon:

It now appears that an effort may be underway to depose Georgia's duly elected government. Russia has invaded a sovereign neighboring state and threatens a democratic government elected by its people. Such an action is unacceptable in the 21st century.

Sound familiar? It ought to. Simply change Georgia to Iraq and Russia to United States:

It now appears that an effort may be underway to depose Iraq's duly elected government. The United States has invaded a sovereign neighboring state and threatens a democratic government elected by its people. Such an action is unacceptable in the 21st century.

Odd stuff, but then all 8 years have been odd [and scary].

By the way, Mr. Bush said 'Russia' rather than 'Georgia,' but we're used to gluing and pasting his words to make an accurate English sentence.
