Iraq War Vet Confronts Bush, Demands Apology For War Lies
“Mr. Bush, when are you going to apologize for the million Iraqis that are dead because you lied?” he asked.
By Susie Madrak


Whew. I didn't realize just how cathartic it would be, to finally see someone publicly call out war criminal George W. Bush at a red-carpet event in Beverly Hills. Via The Daily Sabah:

“Mr. Bush, when are you going to apologize for the million Iraqis that are dead because you lied?” Iraq war vet and anti-war journalist Mike Prysner demanded.

“You lied about weapons of mass destruction, you lied about connections to 9/11. You lied about Iraq being a threat,” shouted Prysner, as Bush told him to “sit and behave.”

“My friends are dead. You killed people. You lied,” Prysner yelled as he was forcibly removed. "My friends are dead because you lied. You need to apologize! Apologize!”

As Joan Walsh pointed out in the Nation, it was pretty hard to watch Bush take part in the September 11th observances as an honored guest.

I wish Bush no harm. He should go live in peace and quiet, paint his paintings, enjoy his grandchildren. But he should never again be made the centerpiece of a grotesque extravaganza, allegedly recounting what happened on that tragic day, on his incompetent and corrupt watch. Unless he wants to tell us the truth. And apologize.

He'll never tell the truth. He'll never apologize. And that's why he should be hounded until the day he dies.

1. That was great. Bless that man!

[Duppers]

2. I agree with the author and not Joan Walsh.

His, Cheney's, Rumsfield's crimes are beyond compare and unforgivable.


And I think a large percentage of Americans have yet to accept the truth thanks to our very corrupt media.

3. "The Mores and the Have Mores". Yeah, George, funny as Hell.

9. I'd forgotten that one

The fool was pretty tone deaf and was obvious as the nose on your face.

[czarjak]

16. He meant it too! Republicanism. Period.

[PatSeg]

17. Yes, when George misspoke,

he usually was telling the truth.

4. Thank you Mr. Prysner for your service and this moment

5. Makes me wonder who else was calling the shots.

6. Bush should be tried for his crimes, period. Murder knows no legal limitations.

8. Too late now and because all the other

Republican traitors were never held to account either we have trump co. The Democratic party has lost so many truly good and qualified players for petty little bullshit while war criminals go to parties.

[BeckyDem]

12. You're right, Bush/Cheney will never pay.

I have a hard time watching Bush given opportunity by the media to rehabilitate himself....sickening.

7. This should have been a lead story on all the networks

It is the truth

10. These PNAC Liars Should Not Be Out in Public...

These PNAC Liars and enablers should not be allowed out in public without a protest: George Bush, Collin Powell, Condaleeza Rice, Wolfewitz and the whole gang. Hound them and make them pay for their lies that caused the death of a million iraqis and the destruction of the country!

11. There is a difference between using power to stay in power, and using power to defend the country

It's a simple idea and I suspect no sorting is absolute, but most regimes fall mostly in one category or the other. Citizens shoud think how they would perform the shake.

13. Bravo!

[duhneece]

14. I had a hand-printed 'Bush Lied. Thousands Died' on my car

…for years. We protested the run-up and then the ‘war’ for years at our small town’s major intersection.

15. Get thee to the Greatest Hague.

He once said, "You get your international lawyers; I'll get mine."

Challenge accepted.

18. Did he throw any shoes at him?

That is the standard protocol for these procedures.
