Blame Bush in 3... 2... 1.
There’s a lower of standards / Affirmative Action effect with Obama. It’s racist to NOT hold a President accountable to the same level as other Presidents solely because of his race, but that’s exactly what’s going on with Obama.
Either than or the Stockholm Syndrome.
You send these people on a one-way trip into the sun, they’d wonder why it’s getting hotter and brighter.
Since the democrats have moved so far left, we have lost all continuity in foreign policy.
First sheriff locks up the Clantons. Second sheriff lets them go.
Perceptive barbershop crowd says the first sheriff was stupid to have locked them up in the first place, since some fool was bound to let them out.
Bush should have used RAID ....( neutron weapons )
If Saddam Hussein were alive, he’d be dead by now.
“”Gore criticizes Bush for ignoring Iraq’s ties to terrorism.””
1992 video about weapons of mass destruction, and as a base for terror operations.

soooo,
Bush won the war in Iraq and obammy gave it away.
Pretty simple deal.
A-holes like Chaffee need to keep their mouths shut about matters that are far beyond their understanding.
Iraq was progressing pretty well until Obama decided to pull all US military and not get a Status of Forces agreement, just so he could claim a “political” success for “ending a war”. ...Decisions opposed by his military Generals.
This from the arm pit of the country,is there anything from Rhode Island that is worth a Damn?
I guess this jerk is looking for attention
At the risk of being flamed and/or banned....
I tend to agree with this statement.
But then I also believe the overthrow in Egypt and Syria by the operatives of the 0bama regime are just as freakin’ deadly too.
As sad as it is to the human condition, when a false theology is forced upon a semi-willing people (islam), the result seems to be the “need” for heavy handed leaders.
I have long contemplated the fall of Saddam Hussein and his use of weapons against his own people. Perhaps, just perhaps, these are the very forces he was keeping in check and what we got handed over and over via the liberal media was propaganda. Where we wage nice war and avoid civilians...Hussein waged war as it should be done in their culture, the only way it is truly understood?
Blame Bush? No, this has been a very long time in coming to full fruition going all the way back to before I was old enough to vote(1970’s). We are seeing the result of decades of failed foreign policy in the middle east. There is so much we(government) know and yet...can’t or won’t talk about openly & honestly. From the actual role of UAE and their closed societies to terrorists, because to do so would be so politically incorrect and we have no way to prosecute a proper war against a theocracy without the liberal left prosecuting us for violating our own ideal of ‘freedom of religion.’
We have no way to fight against a religious crusade. We use phrases in our own culture to ‘follow the money’ and indeed we can do that these days. Most of the middle east money flows to either The House of Saud or Iran and both are sponsors of their jihadi mercenaries. Gitmo, enemy combatants etc. are all just words to avoid having to deal with the reality of Islamic war.
Our failure and for this I do blame Bush, is the failure to truly define the enemy...Islam. We wage war against the sponsors of terrorism? The sponsors of terrorism are those who support Islam and all the forms of their multitude of proxy wars.
Blame Bush? Blame Clinton, Blame Reagan, Blame Carter, Blame GW Bush, Blame 0bama...? Or do we, should we actually blame the 1st Amendment and our principal of Freedom of Religion, for not being able to fight back against a theocracy in all its forms?
Governor Chafee also could have said that the Steelers would have won the Super Bowl last year if ... [you fill in the blanks].
If "ifs and buts" were "peanuts and nuts" what a party we would have!
The blame game will never end for the Democrats.
Rhode Island is one of the NeoEuropa states that should be purged from the Union.
As far as the regime change angle goes, it's not too difficult to understand unless you're purposely ignorant. The idea was to give people freedom and they'll choose the right path. Problem is, with the exception of Israel, no nation in the region seems capable of responsible democratic self rule. Blame them for squandering the opportunity, not Bush for providing it for them.
Lets not forget the gravity given unresolved threats post 9-11 and how that fit in to the Bush administration’s calculus. The situation over there was getting worse while the political resolve among western nations was being undermined by Saddam’s bribery of senior UN officials. Bush had himself in a pickle. No surprise that the ones who didn’t have to make the tough calls did the least honorable thing. Decades later Chaffee is still heckling from the sidelines. What an A-hole.
