W made a stupid, emotional decision. He enjoyed playing wartime president, but he strengthened Iran, and China learned how wonderful hi tech weapons are. W enabled Obama to be elected because W was too consumed with the war to pay attention to the economy.

Other than the above, there were no serious consequences.

He wasn’t ignoring the economy. He was blocked by Congress, embodied by a guy named Franks, and a guy named Dodd, who with the support of their party - who were looting Fannie May - actively blocked any attempt to get the major issues under control. The U.S. even elected a guy who specialized in coercing that looting at the local level.

What do you think Obama was doing as a ‘community activist’? Coercing banks into making bad loans to allied minorities.

Well, OK. There was also the ACORN grift he was helping with.
