"Bush makes 3 mistakes trying to cite 1"
"While struggling unsuccessfully this week to think of a single mistake he has made since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, President Bush committed three factual errors about weapons finds in Libya, the White House said on Wednesday.
Bush, long known for his grammatical conundrums and confusing phraseology, told reporters twice during Tuesday's prime-time news conference that 50 tons of mustard gas were discovered at a turkey farm in Libya.

On the second occasion, he was responding to a reporter who asked him to identify the biggest mistake he had made since the 2001 attacks on New York and Washington that killed nearly 3,000 people and prompted the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.

He could not. But as he searched for an answer, the Republican president reaffirmed his decision to invade Iraq and said weapons of mass destruction may still lie hidden there."

1. Just more evidence that he's "intellectually incurious". You know Rove...
... and Cheney were slapping their foreheads on that one.

"PAY attention next time, George! We only give you a few numbers to toss in with your catch phrases! Next time get them right!!"

This is why he can't actually speak about actual details and important matters the few times he speaks to the press, why he fills his time with inanity like "we will not back down" and "Freedom is a gift from the Almighty". To do any more makes it patently obvious that he's an idiot.

Oh, this link works better:
