I just think Bush was stupid for saying it - I actually believe by "been to war" he meant Afghanistan. You know, 'cause he's commander in chief.

That is really a stretch!
I believe Kiss. I believe President Bush told the joke exactly as Kiss described. As I posted in response to this earlier, it is just a variation of an old military joke....that has been told by US GIs for at least the last 30 years (at least in the AF). Usually it compares kids or marriage to war...During the Cold War, military duty was referred to as "war," or "the war." Live-fire exercises, etc... were referred to the same way.
