If this country would have stood behind Bush then most of that wouldn’t have been a problem. We went into Iraq and Afghanistan and were riding a wave until the dems and the weak kneed republicans started screaming that Bush was a loser. THEY gave it away and made it a long drawn out affair and THEY are the ones who gave NOKO and Iran the courage to kick sand in our face. If this country would have stood behind Bush, Iraq would have been over by now, NOKO would have been handled and Iran would be silent.
As much as I believe Bush was a lousy president, you’re absolutely right about Iraq/Afghanistan. Much of his lousy decisions, domestic and foreign, could probably be attributed to the pressure he was under from dealing with an openly treasonous congress.
