If u had to pray the price of democracy and freedom of expression—which u suppose is wht Bush has bestowed upon the Iraqis—with the blood of ur loved ones and the honour of ur women, it wud have been surprising 2 c u nt behavin in a similar manner. Ppl in Iraq were made targets to bullets and bombs…this was just a boot -rather two boots…Bush deserved more than this.
