Remember that mighty military we had in Desert Storm? The tanks, jets and Bradleys were used up in Iraq and Afghanistan. Except for the ones Obama left for his Muslim buddies. But remember Bush put them there. Over a trillion dollars wasted. Thousands of GIs died, thousands more lost limbs.

Any student of history should have known Islam and western style democracy are incompatible. There was no end game. HW Bush had a well laid out plan with a clearly stated goal. It worked magnificently.

GW Bush told us we would be there for decades. The stupidity of that war combined with nominating insane warhawk McCain opened the door for Hussein the usurper.

Then add the domestic idiocy. The Department of Reichland Security. TSA. The Patriot act. Teddy Kennedy's education bill. Medicare part D so LBJ wouldn't bring home all the entitlement accolades to Texas. The light bulb ban. CO2 is a pollutant. A promise to sign an assault weapons ban if Congress was dumb enough to pass one.

Bush started his own Viet Nam war without a stated goal or end game, and left the mess for his successor. Only he expected to keep getting our GIs killed for fifty years.

I must be a moron for noticing all this.

Actually you’re starting to sound like a liberal in the wrong neighborhood.
