Like his foolish bother who trashed Trump and Pompeo yesterday for this and for as bad as Biden screwed it up, it was GWB who started two wars and both turned out to be wastes of time, money and more importantly human lives..

George W Bush’s remarks on the Taliban

Like I said he will never apologize or admit his mistakes.

What is he supposed to apologize for in this regard? He was the President when 9/11/2001 happened. The other day you seemed to be completely unaware of that. Then you post on one of the worst and most tragic days in US History "this is a great day."

He’s only sad because he, Cheney, and their buddies can’t profit from it any more.

Didn’t George H have chance to take out Sadam and didn’t?

Bush was in office on 9/11 longer than Biden was when Afghanistan fell apart. If we are going to hammer Biden for Afghanistan, then Bush should be equally hammered for allowing 9/11 on his watch.

He should apologize for the failed nation building in Afghanistan and Iraq. The squandering of billions and billions of dollars.

He will never admit it was a colossal failure or show humility. He is a disgrace in my book.

In 2003, we allowed the then Communications Officer of the Taliban to enter our country to attend Yale. That’s when I knew Bush wasn’t serious about his little war. It’s obscene that we lost so many lives and limbs there - and yet there still is such a functioning thing as a “Taliban”.

“He’s only sad because he, CHENEY, and their buddies can’t profit from it any more.”

PRECISELY what I was going to post!! The Bushes and Cheneys have American soldiers’ blood on their hands and have no problem continuing.

It’s like Ted Bundy or Jeffrey Dahmer saying they are sorry people were killed.

Evil is a stupid, blunt force instrument and this clown is a ball peen.

The Republicans and Dems among the Neo-Cons will just find some other way to funnel money to their war-profitting friends. After all, the world is a big place. I’m sure there’s some country somewhere that needs a new puppet regime installed by Uncle Sam.

You’re right. Anyone with an ounce of decency would apologize for his horrific failures.

Instead, Bush’s statement reads as if he’s just some neutral observer on the sidelines. What a piece of trash he is.

Instead they double down on the stupidity. Argh. Like I said, makes me angry.

Sorry if I’m a bit snappy.

Lessons need to be learned and so called leaders like Bush should be among those keen to learn them.

Instead he and Cheney come out with stuff like “I would do exactly the same thing again”.

Let’s not forget to add Cheney to the list. He’s as responsible as any of them. Meanwhile, Liz Cheney is bashing and blaming Trump.
