![“If George Bush [Jr.] decided he was going to turn the troops loose on Syria and Iran after that he would last in office for about 15 minutes. In fact if President Bush were to try that now even I would think that he ought to be impeached. You can't get away with that sort of thing in this democracy.” quote by Lawrence Eagleburger](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f71/lawrence-eagleburger-19898_bush_if-george-bush-jr-decided-he-was-going-t_38824.jpg)
