"The son starts a trillion dollar war, losing 5000 American lives, over phony reports of “weapons of mass destruction”. Just who is the stupid one unqualified to be President, Mr. Bush?"

One point you forgot. The "reason" that Bush II started that war was because Bush I didn't finish the first one. In GWI, when the allies had destroyed Saddam's army, they should have blitzkrieged all the way to Baghdad, and hung Saddam from the nearest lamppost. Instead, Bush I listened to that disloyal RINO, Colin Powell, and backed off.

THAT is one of the biggest bones I have to pick with Bush I.

That would be Colin Powell, o ba ma supporter and non-conservative. Read what Norman Schwartzkopf thought of powell. So GHWB gave us obama by dismantling Ronald Reagan. Remember him calling “voodoo economics” of Reagan. And the congress made that possible.

Wrong. The first gulf war would have worked if Saddam had complied with the cease fire agreement. He didn’t and he paid the price.

While you have a point that the Saddam Hussein regime should have been terminated in 1991, name the proper villain. It was neither GHWB, nor Colin Powell who made that decision. It was the feckless, worthless UN who is solely responsible for that. The UN, it itys entire existence has only done two, count them, two things properly, and only went halfway with both of them...
