Iraq War "a Large Problem," According to Bush's Dad

Drudge has up today a story that George H.W. Bush told Time magazine's Hugh Sidey that "the war in Iraq is a large problem. There's a lot of what Jimmy Carter called 'malaise' around."

But the man who had never seen a grocery scanner and didn't know the cost of a gallon of milk nor how ordinary Americans were getting by back in 1992, also told Sidey that "the country is doing pretty darn well," which just goes to show you that when you've never had a clue, you're not likely to get one just because Fate decides to take pity on you.
