Obama advisor David Axelrod sought to take Hillary Clinton’s criticism of President Obama’s policy of “Don’t do stupid stuff,” and shift the focus to George W. Bush, but in the process he inferred that his boss’ appointees, Biden, Clinton, Kerry and Powell, were stupid.

“Just to clarify: ‘don’t do stupid stuff’ means stuff like occupying Iraq in the first place, which was a tragically bad decision,” tweeted Axelrod, happy to get in still another jab at Bush, but forgetting that Obama’s appointees all supported going into Iraq.

Doesn’t that make them all stupid, David?  Still got that foot in your mouth, eh?
