He did what should've been done a long time ago. And what's with the journalist sitting infront of Zaidi trying to stop him what was he doing trying to pose as Bush's saviour?<br />I have a question for George Bush that if he did all those things to Iraq claiming to bring so called democracy then what's wrong with Zaidi expressing himself...??? Why is he under custody? He used his democratic right so why is he being tortured? Bush and the likes of you May you all rot in hell for what you did to Iraq. And hats off to Zaidi for giving Bush the farewell he deserved...:P)<br />For your own little contribution in Bush's izzat visit <a href="http://www.sockandawe.com/">http://www.sockandawe.com/</a></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5639014655284417559-1119840378982101748?l=shoehurlinghero.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sanahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08096911814646610230noreply@blogger.com0
