Bushism of the Day By Jacob Weisberg Posted Wednesday, January 22, 2003, at 12:28 PM PT
"When Iraq is liberated, you will be treated, tried, and persecuted as a war criminal."—Washington, D.C., Jan. 22, 2003. (Thanks to Chad Conwell.)
You know, beside the fact that this is atrocious grammar, it's also terrible diplomacy. You never want to force an adversary, especially one who might have chemical or other dangerous weapons, into a situation where he thinks he has no options for escape. By making statements like this Bush has so much as said that any of the other talk we are hearing about Sadaam going into is exile should not be taken seriously.
