Laura Ingraham On Jeb's Iraq Answer: There's 'Something Wrong With You' (AUDIO)
By Brendan James
Published May 11, 2015, 1:43 PM EDT


Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham dropped the hammer on former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) on Monday after the likely presidential candidate said he would invade Iraq again, knowing what we know now.

"You can't still think that going into Iraq, now, as a sane human being, was the right thing to do," Ingraham said on her radio show.

"If you do, there has to be something wrong with you," she added.

At one point she began laughing, and doubted that Bush was "his own person" capable of breaking with his brother, President George W. Bush.

"That's just a fun hypothetical, but you have to say no to that!" she said.

The radio host said the exchange did not bode well for Bush if he were to secure the GOP nomination and face off against Clinton and the press.

"You have to have someone who says, look, I'm a Republican but I'm not an idiot! I'm not stupid!" she said. "I learn from the past and I improve myself."
