Bush KNEW Webb's son almost died in Iraq last week!

SHOCKING UPDATE TO BUSH-WEBB EXCHANGE:
Webb’s son Jimmy was almost killed last week when the jeep next to him was blown up killing three marines. It appears that Bush KNEW Webb’s son was almost killed and that prompted his snarky “How’s your boy?”
Here are some sources for this:

In the words of Congressman Jim Moran (D-VA) who cites “very reliable sources”, “Not only did Bush know about it, he was specifically briefed on the incident before meeting with Webb, and was cautioned to be extra sensitive in speaking with Webb about his son.”
Whatever the facts, we honor the service of Marine Jim Webb Jr. We would never call this honorable Marine who almost died last month a “boy.”

How long will America accept the lies of a blowhard coward December 6, 2006 9:33 am
This is the mothafucka–many sons and daughters are dying for–so he can simply save face
And Bush’s blowhard father blubbers like a baby in public over private selfish family sentiment
One has to wonder–is compassion a one-way street for these Bush bastards? Do they understand the extent of pain they extoll on the human condition?
