Litrally Bush’s Fault.
Yes, and this was just a very small part of “his story.” As one who worried at the time that he wouldn't be elected and reelected because the alternatives were so horrendous, through the prism of time, I've come to understand that he was not all that he claimed to be. The mess in the ME should all be laid at his feet. Through his acts, we killed off the dictators that managed to keep the ME under some semblance of control, and in so doing he caused us to spend money we didn't really have and to put thousands of our young men and women in the ground. For those reasons, he has my undying enmity.
