    That was so freakin funny. Except also scary.

    Interviewer: So, what happened with the army in Iraq, Mr. President.

    Dubya: Some of them got killed!

    Interviewer: Wouldn’t that happen in war?

    Dubya: In war? One in a million chance! You’d have a better chance of getting hit by a car in peacetime. I was hit twice!

    Don’t forget the actual quote of Donald Rumsfeld’s when asked about looting in Baghdad when the US invaded:

    Stuff happens and it’s untidy, and freedom’s untidy, and free people are free to make mistakes and commit crimes and do bad things.”

    (11 April 2003)

    Gotta love that. Granted, it’s true, but it doesn’t exactly sound like the sort of reassuring thing that a Secretary of Defence ought to say at that moment.
