What the heck...?

This article was brought to my attention today, but note that this happened twenty days ago. Did you hear about it? Bush Cites Racism in Remarks On Iraq (washingtonpost.com)

Bush said, "There's a lot of people in the world who don't believe that people whose skin color may not be the same as ours can be free and self-govern."

Same as "ours"? Who the heck is he talking about? America or just white people?

Well it becomes quite clear later in the article that he meant white people. And here I was thinking that the President of the United States of America represented all Americans, not just the caucasians. Silly me.

And why won't he identify those "people in the world", especially since there's a "lot" of them? Maybe the War on Terrorism needs to be expanded?

More later...
