Regarding his views on President George W. Bush and the September 11 attacks, Rourke stated in an interview, \"President Bush was in the wrong place at the wrong time, I don\'t know how anyone could have handled this situation.\" He went on to say, \"I don\'t give a fuck who\'s in office, Bush or whoever; there is no simple solution to this problem . . . I\'m not one of those who blames Bush for everything. This shit between Christians and Muslims goes back to the Crusades, doesn\'t it?
