Huh?

This is just too good. AP for August 29 tells us that Bunny has added a new phrase to our political vocabulary.

[I]n an interview with Time Magazine, the president suggested he had underestimated the struggle of the postwar period in Iraq.

"Had we to do it over again, we would look at the consequences of catastrophic success, being so successful so fast that an enemy that should have surrendered or been done in escaped and lived to fight another day," Bush said.

Catastrophic success? Just what in the flaming hell is that supposed to mean? The disaster that is Iraq happened because we won too easily? That's what he's saying? That if only our conquest was bloodier and took longer everything would be fine now? What kind of crap is he spewing?

Let's not forget, by the way, that this was the administration that said that the takeover of Iraq would be a "cakewalk" and we would be greeted as "liberators" with rose petals strewn in our path. So they predicted it would be easy and now are saying the troubles and pain are because it was easy. The logical conclusion is that they wanted there to be this kind of trouble and pain in Iraq, wanted ongoing strife, fear, and death.

Either that or they're just a sleazy cabal of despicable liars. Whatever.
