"As
you know, the Bush administration's conduct concerning prosecuting the war on
terror has been questioned by some. But as the president himself explains,
there is a perfectly good reason why we don't understand what he's doing [on
screen: Bush, in multiple interviews, saying Iraq is 'a totally different kind
of war'].
Obviously, we invaded Iraq initially because this war is historically
unprecedented. Yesterday, the president explained to us why we must stay in
Iraq -- historical precedent. Yes, that was the message yesterday as Bush
addressed the Veterans of Foreign Wars, an organization whose numbers he has
personally done so much to boost.
[on screen: Bush citing the Japanese bombing
of Pearl Harbor to make the case for the Iraq war]. And that is why, in 1941,
America invaded China. Yes, with the pivotal Petraeus surge report just weeks
away, Bush began his surge to gain support for the Iraq war the only way left
by talking up a bunch of other wars." --Jon Stewart
