I am not a fan of W at all, indeed I think that, along with his father, he was the most destructive and failed Republican president since at least Harding, perhaps longer. Most of the massive economic and foreign policy failures of the past 28 years can be said to at least in part come out of the abject failures of Bush 1&2.
But he made the correct decision here.
Though you gotta admit it was pretty cool when he showed up in Baghdad on Thanksgiving and served turkey dinner to the troops. Also when he landed on the aircraft carrier in the navy jet all decked out in flight gear. Both occasions made the entire MSM’s heads explode in unison.
Other than that then, yea, meh.
