Whether you're a 50-year-old American captain killed in Iraq or a 33-year-old Egyptian hijacker flying into the World Trade Center, George W. Bush considers you "kids."

Speaking yesterday to his dozen remaining supporters in the United States, Bush said he will never let American troops out of Iraq: "And if I didn't think it was necessary for the security of the country, I wouldn't put our kids in harm's way."

Invoking Al Qaeda 200 times, to the delight of his remaining dozen supporters, he said: "You can attack a nation several ways. One, you can get 19 kids to fly airplanes into buildings."

What an asshole.
