Jeb, the guy who wants to kiss the butt of foreign invaders lecturing us about safety.

Total BS - Clinton totally ignored the Islamic threat and since they only have selective memories, Jimmy Carter was the one who was responsible for it all but promoting radical Islam. I truly believe his hatred of Israel led to all this.

Really? Citing liberal Vox knocking President Bush as a way to bash Gov. Jeb Bush is a low watermark for FR. We can do better.

You can't blame W for 9/11 what BS

Everyone at Fox gives Carly a winner of the debate.

Donor class paid the pundits not the candidates

She lost and was pushy

and then there’s the whole invasion of Iraq which basically created the circumstances that have lead to the Iranian nuclear deal. Trump was right on target.

Well, considering Vox is to the left of EVERYONE, I’m not too surprised by the title of this column.

I seem to recall Condi, Blair, Bush etc., worrying about Iran in the exact same way we are worrying about it now in early September 2008. Then, some Wall Street friends of the Bush White House pulled the trigger on the stock market on September 11, 2008, and all the Iran worries were swept under the carpet.

It is just Uniparty banter about how Obama has lost the peace. Surely, Jeb’s vaunted “experienced” military advisors who got us into Iraq were smart enough to foresee what Obama would do.

Otherwise, if they didn’t foresee and therefore do things to prevent Obama’s moves, all their experience is meaningless. Uniparty fake outs. War is good for whatever government or party in power.

Rumsfield recently stated the same things Trump said about the war, btw.

And Obama blames Bush for the economy. Bush was in Charge of keeping us safe. he failed. Jeb does not get a pass on this.

Why is it a problem for Carly Fiorina to be “pushy” but not a problem for Trump to be a rude, insulting asshat?

Boy, i tend to agree on that one.

Or maybe if we kept 15000 troops there, we would have been feared and over 30 or 40 years very good things could have happened.

We left them in Germany, Japan, Korea...I dont know.
