Bush says he's ready to take "rap" over Iraq
In an interview late Thursday with CNN television, Bush said, however, that he believed the decision to invade Iraq was the right one and that he would win the election battle against Kerry, in which Iraq is a key issue.
...
Interviewer Larry King told how after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961, President John F. Kennedy "took the rap".
Bush interrupted to state: "I'm taking the rap, too, of course."
He's taking the rap for Iraq? Really? Is he resigning? Because that is what taking the rap for Iraq will entail!
Heavens no, he's not resigning! "Taking the rap" in Monkeytalk means "slipping by again!"
He's "taking the rap" for Iraq like he did for his DWI!
Like he did for going AWOL!
Like he did for running businesses into the ground!
Like he did for conspiring to out Valerie Plame!
He's never been held accountable for anything in his life! Not once!
Now let's all step back and admire his sterling character!
