Bush: ‘Outside forces tend to divide people up.’ - Me: 'DUH'

[wordsmythe]

President Bush defended his decision not to send U.S. troops into the Darfur genocide, saying he learned lessons from the genocide in Rwanda. Ignorant of the comparison to Iraq, Bush said foreign troops would only be divisive and “unbelievably counterproductive”:

BUSH: A clear lesson I learned in the museum was that outside forces that tend to divide people up inside their country are unbelievably counterproductive. In other words, people came from other countries — I guess you’d call them colonialists — and they pitted one group of people against another.

So what’s your point?

Are you suggesting that we invade Darfur?

Would that be before or after Obama invades Pakistani?

Are you reminding us that Bill Clinton didn’t intervene in Rwanda and his ambassador to the UN, Madeline Albright, voted against letting UN troops get involved?

Or are you just reminding us that you surf left-wing Kool-Aid sites that judging from the comments section has a collective IQ of less than 30?
