    The USA get one “we did something unthinkably stupid” free pass.

    They used up all those passes during the Bush administration.

      Remember when we thought Bush was the low point in American history, and it couldn’t get more absurd than “Freedom Fries”? Good times.

        Don’t diminish what a shit bag Bush was.
