Yep. And Bush lost that war. It was his to win, or to lose. Not Obama, but Bush.

How can one declare 'he lost' something that hasn't even finished yet ?

He won all the 'battles' on the battlefield.

However, you are correct in that he did lose 'a war'. That war was with the MSM and the public.

Who will control Afghanistan 5 years from now? Who will control Iraq 5 years from now? Who will control North Korea 5 years from now? Hint: it won't be friendly regimes

Heck, they aren't 'friendly regimes' now.

Right you are. The Global War on Terror isn't over yet. But it won't end well. Bush had a unique opportunity to completely eradicate radical islam right after 9/11, but he chose not to do it.

He won all the 'battles' on the battlefield.

Again, I agree. But he never delivered that desicive final blow. He never went all-in. Radical islam today should be as discredited as nazism was in 1945. But it's not!

Radical islam gains new supporters every day. That sure wasn't true of nazism in 1945. FDR and Churchill saw to that.
