Democracy for Vancouver

For the last year or so, I’ve let the shrub off the hook. He obviously can’t help it and to a large extent, he and his intelligence is a sort of red herring, in my opinion; I seriously doubt that he has much to do with the day to day running of this country, let alone running it into the ground.
But this is the dumbest thing anyone has ever said, at any time:

A reporter asked Bush where he stood “on Iraq and your domestic debate on Iraq,” and whether he had a timetable for withdrawing U.S. troops. In response, Bush insisted that “freedom’s happening” and Iraq isn’t in a “quagmire”: I don’t — you know quagmire is an interesting word. If you lived in Iraq and had lived under a tyranny, you’d be saying: God, I love freedom, because that’s what’s happened.

Everyone in the room is now dumber, having heard it.
