Our 2003 invasion of Iraq led to the deaths of at least tens of thousands of Iraqi children and making refugees of hundreds of thousands more. Count was lost years ago, there have been so many.
Not that anybody cares -- or really ever did.

If you missed it, former First Lady Laura Bush put down her cigarette and drink long enough to write a column. She's outraged, you understand, because Donald Trump is continuing Barack Obama's disgusting policy of separating undocumented immigrants -- children here, parents there.
Now Laura never protested under Barack but we'll let that pass because she was probably hung over a lot and, if we were married to Bully Boy Bush, we'd tumble into bed each night stinking drunk as well.
But it's "cruel," Laura insisted to separate children and parents.
We agree she knows about cruel, she was drunk and killed that teenager. His parents lost their child, that was cruel. She knows cruel.
But she doesn't seem to grasp that when you kill adults -- including civilians -- in Iraq, you take them away from their children and, yes, that's cruel. Also yes, that's what her husband did. But she never felt the need to call that out, did she?
But killing hundreds of thousands of children in Iraq and Afghanistan was just fine.
Trump is a horror show. But we can't let that redeem the Bush clan. No. No thanks. War criminals are criminals too.
- Nahhhh. Laura Bush collaborated when her hubby waged an illegal war in Iraq. Her voice isn't needed. Stop the W Bush rehab tour.
- Funny thing, Laura Bush didn't say it's immoral when 100,000 children died in Iraq War.
Laura Bush husband got us into a war in Iraq that killed thousands because of a lie. So please excuse me if I don’t care what she thinks
- @laurawbush Maybe George can go visit Iraq and walk freely with the Iraqi people and see how they feel about the war he brought to their country ... how many Dead Iraqi’s Mrs. Bush due to your husband’s war?
