Ok, I see what you are saying here...

If Bush had not only rolled on Iraq and Afgahanistan, he should have also rolled up on Saudi Arabia (Riyadh) and Pakistan (Islamabad) as well...

That way Obama would never had come to the forefront of American politics, introducing all sorts of domestic economic and social killing programs like your ObamaCare (ACA) and 17-18 Trillion dollars of debt...With no way to pay it all off now???

Okay, I can dig it...

How were we supposed to know the acts of a previous administration were going to foster this type of ridiculous situation we are in now???

And if this were true, why did so many stupid people vote this schmup into office...TWICE!!!

Were did “we” go wrong??? And who is “we”???

I only ask that to spur additional “adult” discussion...

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to irk you, or get a rise outta you either...I’m just lofting the ball back into yer side of the court...You know that’s my intention on these discussions...Nothin’ personal or vindictive...

This is how Steve rolls...;-)

No.

The enemy center of gravity is Saudi Arabia-Pakistan.

Afghanistan needed a punitive expedition for hosting OBL. I would have nuked Tora Bora in December 2001 once OBL was confirmed to be there.

Saddam was wearing a big "kick me" sign when somebody's ass needed kicking, but he would have been a much better ally than enemy.

I really have no idea why we took out Saddam instead of going after the real enemies. Once we nuked Tora Bora, Saddam and Bush would have been besties the very next day, and we could have had Saddam roll on Saudi/Yemen while India took Pakistan, with US SOF and Navy support.

That we are still hacking around in Trashcanistan after thirteen f***ing years is proof of a serious strategic misconception.
