Do You S'pose...

...he sees the irony in this statement?

"Free nations are peaceful nations. Free nations don't attack each other. Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction."
--George W. Bush

The leader of our country, who preemptively declares and wages a war on another nation which has brought about the deaths of over one million people, most of them non-combatants...and the leader of a nation with one of the largest (are we #1?) stockpiles of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons in the world, has the nerve to talk about free, peaceful nations? We certainly glorify and romanticize violence on an epic scale. What is he really saying (albeit accidentally, I'm sure) about us?
