| "Iraq is choke full of fun people to torture"

!!!!!! This review contains spoilers !!!!!!
George Sr. takes Lil Bush on a camping trip to Iraq while showing viewers the torture and lack of organization of Iraq.
"Iraq is choke full of fun people to torture"- George Sr.
"Fix Iraq? That's Crazy!!!"-Lil Condileeza Rice. LMAO. Wow talk reality meets rhetoric that has to be one of the funniest jokes in Season 2 of Lil Bush. Funny because it's true.
Funny stuff haven't had the honor to watch all season 2 episodes with college and work but this episode might be the best episode of season 2 cleverly written with a lot of metaphors of the mess that Bush and his cronies have made in Iraq.
For instance, the metaphor of Bush, his Dad and the Republicans partying it up in Iraq is exactly what the administration has been doing since 2003 that is profiting of the war, laughing and partying all the way to the bank while a lot of dead marines and Iraqis pay the price.
If you pay attention you'll see a short shot that has several Iraqis/or Saudis naked with masks over their head (an obvious reference to the Abu Ghraib scandal) of which the military and the administration tried to keep quite over.
(Dick Cheney would still continue to say publicly that the US does not engage in torture when they do.)
Lil Rice's comment about "Fixing Iraq" is funny as hell because that's exactly what the Bush administration has been promising, alluding to doing but in reality the administration has made Iraq more instable than ever. They've failed miserable and their motives were NEVER about fixing Iraq. The key thing to remember is that the US intervention in Iraq is not about giving the Iraqi's democracy but occupying the country plain and simple for other purposes (ahem Oil setting up bases in Iraq).
Another great joke (based on reality) delivered in this episode:"huh our very own puppet dictator" by George Sr. which is an obvious reference to the true life ties the US has had to real life dictators like General Pinochet from Chile (now a dead war criminal whom the US and President Nixon to name a few gave a free lease to terrorize anyone in Chile and assisted him in assassinating democratically elected Salvador Allende), Somoza in Nicaragua and of course the dead Saddam Hussein.
Of course people who complain about this show bashing Republicans will forget to point how this episodes also makes fun of Democrats (who have gone on vacation to South Padre Island for Spring Break)...an obvious reference that despite the fact that the Democrats have disapproved of what the administration has done they've done very little to stop them.
This was an excellent episode.
