Many of Obama’s out-of-control disasters would not have happened if GWB hadn’t gotten the ball rolling. GWB was pretty good at the “aw shucks” routine. Get past that and you’ve got an enabler of the global elite.

YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

Excellent post. I agree 100%. W protected the homeland after 9/11, but he was a disaster otherwise. He did not learn from LBJ's mistakes. In fact, W repeated those mistakes almost exactly.

And we will eventually see evacuation helicopters take off from the roof of the US embassy in Kabul, just as in Saigon.

One can only hope that future presidents get the message. But I doubt it. They all want to be great movers and shakers.

Bush the Elder got the ball rolling with Desert Storm. You two are beyond stupid.

You should be criticizing Obama’s Epic Failures. Obama has been in office almost seven years. You both are stuck on stupid.

Well, no. Bush did a lot that was poorly thought out and poorly executed, but by 2009 the Mid East was stable, relatively peaceful, and under control. ISIS didn't exist. Obama campaigned in 2012 on how successful the region had become!

In 2011, just for grins, The National Geographic did a big feature complete with the usual pictures, of "the new Baghdad," complete with the obligatory night club scenes and farmers' markets amid the blast walls.

That was Obama's rationale for ignoring Bush's prescient warnings and pulling out our insurance policy (troops) instead of negotiating a SoFA when the previous one expired.

Bush made his share of errors but the current chaos is pure Obama all the way.
