BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - Iran should stay out of Iraq's elections, President Bush said Wednesday on pan-Arab television.
"Let's be clear, the Iranians should not be in a position to influence the elections," Bush said in an interview with the Dubai-based satellite channel Al-Arabiya, according to an Arabic voiceover.

12. You're only allowed to interfere if you are in bed with Iran & are running

for office. Then it's okay.

5. "Hello kettle...you're black."

Does this idiot ever think before he speaks? I guess only the US is allowed to influence elections; only our puppets can hold office.

The more I read about Bush and his idiotic statements, I really believe that this man is absolutely clueless!! He just doesn't get it.

WHITE HOUSE Four days before Iraqis go to the polls, President Bush is warning Iran and Syria against interfering.
In an interview with an Arabic T-V channel, the president said Iran "should not be trying to unduly influence the elections."And he said Syria, too, "should not be meddling." He called on Damascus to stop the flow of money, arms and people across the border, saying they're being used to terrorize Iraqis and attack U-S soldiers.Bush voiced confidence Iraqis want to choose a government free of outside influence.He was interviewed at the White House by the Dubai-based al-Arabiya T-V channel.At the same time, Bush said he'd like to solve the dispute over Iran's nuclear program diplomatically. Washington says the program's aimed at building a bomb, a charge Tehran denies.
