So, you are a pinko if you are able to read? FOlks are on the record all over the place admitting they presented questionable intelligence as reliable to trump up the case for war in Iraq. Was it by Bush’s orders? I doubt it, but that doesn’t mean the american people were not deceived, and the end result was not worth it.

There is nothing communist about recognizing the Iraq War was a failure in hindsight... If you look at where Iraq is today, and think that we succeeded there, there is little hope for you. Yes we toppled a dictator, and had no idea what to do once we did... so now we have a virtually failed state, terrorism far worse that the taliban running rampant, and trillions of dollars and thousands of lives lost. Like it or not these leaders in this part of the world keep the more radical elements in check, they may do it ruthlessly, but they do it.

Obama made the same stupid mistakes when he supported the Arab Spring.... may not have put boots on the ground but by forcing out less then nice guys, he let the radicals fill in vaccuums all over the region.

We have 16 years of flagrantly failed foreign policy in that part of the world by 2 administrations.

If you look at where Iraq is today, and are ignorant of what Obama did to create that, there is little hope for you.

You are equating Obama with G W Bush?

Mix everything into a stew, huh?
