Hillary was Secretary of State for four years and left the Middle East literally in flames.

That’s what happened.

Yep. And we can add onto that the incredibly inept handling of foreign policy by her successor, an unashamed traitor to the United States.

Bush left Iraq in better shape than it had been in since WWII. 0bama squandered it. Bush overthrew the Taliban in Afghanistan in three weeks, the direct upshot of 9/11 and fully deserved. Unfortunately, neither man was able to come up with a policy guaranteeing that they'd stay out of government. That's not really too surprising; foreign powers have been trying something like it there for most of history with equal lack of success.

But for the absolute, bloody shambles in the Middle East we have to blame progressives who simply could not conceive of the U.S. as anything but unbearably imperialistic under Bush and "all better now" that a Nobel Peace Prize winner was in office to reverse not only all his predecessor's policies but most of the country's for the last four decades. The result we see before us, and it isn't pretty, and hearing an idiot like Josh Earnest bleat that all is well only rubs salt in the wounds.

Putting ANY Democrat in charge of foreign policy is like putting Yogi Bear in charge of the picnic baskets.Never a good idea.
