If it was about Cheney and Halliburton (btw, Halliburton also had contracts during the Clinton administration), why did some Democrats vote yes to authorize resuming military action in Iraq?

Iraq was already destabilized. Unless you define a stable country as the government going into citizens houses and taking them out to be tortured and fed into meat-grinding machines.

Shame on us? Typical liberal; blame the U.S. not the terrorists! It was a coalition of countries involved in the Iraq war, a multi-national force, not just the U.S. If we didn't win any war in Iraq, why isn't Saddam still in power?

Bush pulled us out of the Clinton recession and kept the economy humming for seven years. There was an economic crash at the end- one which he warned was coming. But for the most part his tenure was very good. Compare that to Obama, who has yet to give us a palpable recovery.

In the post 9/11 environment, when there was a consensus that we should fight our enemies, Bush did so, leaving a free and relatively stable Iraq that could have served as an example for all of the Middle East. Then Obama waltzes in, unilaterally and completely withdraws our troops, and now it is a seething terrorist hot bed. Other regions that were stabilized under Bush such as Russia and Libya have also fallen apart.

Obama has given us one of the most unpopular bills in history in Obamacare.

The future will judge Bush as a likable, capable president who has some hard times and a press that distorted everything he did, and Obama as a disgrace to the office.

You just posted that^

No. That would be watch football and eat pretzels.

But be careful and read the disclaimer--"Pretzels may cause choking, fainting and falls from sofas."
