5. "You're either with us or you're against us"

In short, these bozos came into office with America prosperous and at peace. They left office with two lousy middle east quagmires and the economy in smoking ruins. Good job, boys.

Maybe the real Bozo's are the ones who can't see past their hatred.

Some historians have already changed their opinion of the Bush admin and say his reputation has gone up and will continue to go up as time goes by.

1. I hate to break the news to you but, the dems justified going against iraq BEFORE Bush was even elected and CONTINURD to suppot him AFTER his election. And guess who holds the purse strings to fund the action? yep The dems.

2. Are you saying Obama is mis-managing the Afgan war?

3. Bush had a great economic record until the dems took control of comgtess in 2007. Look it up.

4. if the military captured an enemy and thought they had info that would stop a terroist attack that may kill me and my family, I say do what ever they need to do to keep my family safe. I'd start with cutting of fingers one at a time. Hint, war is not pretty.

5. That challenge was to the rest of the world that had in public decried sadam but, behind closed doors had secret oil deals that were against UN sanctions which is one reason why he defied 12 UN sanctions..

We're living their legacy, now. Look around. Look at how things have changed since the last Democratic administration. We put a neo-Hitler and his puppet idiot in office and the world realized it could kick us when we were defenseless. We've stupidly hit back, much like a four-year-old takes a swing at daddy, and now we're paying the price.
I want to post a video for you, try to take its message to heart, if not, just get a good laugh at Rich Iott's expense (he won't mind, trust me):

I'm happy to break the news to you. A little thing called 9/11 (perhaps you've heard) happened after Bush was elected and should have changed Iraq's place in our order of priorities. The other news is Bush himself has stated HE made the decision to invade Iraq, HE owns it, lock, stock, and barrel.

Some "historians" aren't historians at all. They're political hacks. Their opinions won't matter much. Their silly apologies will quickly fade away, but Bush/Cheney's record will remain.

You apologists just LOVE to try to shift the blame for Iraq. It's your favorite misdirection play.

You're terribly confused.

Go see Inside Job. Or keep making lame comments showing your lack of grasp. It's a free country. No one will ever force you to be informed.

That's the same bizarre logic Bush and Cheney used.

It's never happened, though.

But it's clear why you're such an apologist.

Listen to what Obama said at the ramadan dinner. Now compare that to what he said the next day in Panama City, FL.
Talk about back peddling
it is no secret that muslims wanted obama in the WH.
