Bush jokes about the gravity of the situation in Iraq

@ 06:30 PM (36 months, 2 days ago)

While American men and women, not to mention Iraqi men, women, and children, are dying daily in a civil war, George Bush continues to demonstrate that he truly doesn't understand the gravity of the situation.

Check out this exchange from today's presser, courtesy of the White House's very own website:

Q Mr. President, the Iraq Study Group described the situation in Iraq as grave and deteriorating. You said that the increase in attacks is unsettling. That won't convince many people that you're still in denial about how bad things are in Iraq, and question your sincerity about changing course.

PRESIDENT BUSH: It's bad in Iraq. Does that help? (Laughter.)
