No, we told our kids why the war was wrong.......this is why Trump got the nomination over the other 16, he called President Bush out. Don't you ever wonder why Jeb was pissed off, along with the other Bushs, it wasn't because Jeb lost!


The left is the one teaching their children free stuff and more refugees will make our country the perfect utopia.


President bush ought to for once be a man and call out the left, yet he sits in silent, doing nothing!

How is that any different than Hitler saying ethnic Germans were being killed along the Polish border when he invaded that country in 1939? Was Hitler justified in invading Poland?

Apparently you believe that the rules of engagement and the justification for full scale war don't apply to the United States.
Saddam Hussein Used Chemical weapons to kill 200,000 Kurdish people in his own country, He dropped mustard and nerve gas on a town of 5,000. He killed at least 300 of his political rivals over his time as "President".

No one disputes that he did the above.

Youa re comparing Hitler to America.

Hitler killed innocent people.

We took out a monster directly responsible for the death of at least 200,000 people.

Are you saying you didnt know this, or that it didnt matter ("it was ever there, not over here")

I don't believe this has anything to do with a political movement. Ask any high school kid what their least favorite subject is and they'll more than likely tell you math or history. Most kids simply don't care for history. Also, most history classes in high school don't get in-depth on matters they just cover the basic premise.

Millennials believe George W Bush killed more people than Stalin, finds survey | The Independent
terrible thread.

from study in the article :

A) They didn't just poll millenials, they polled everyone over 16

B) Only 26% thought more people died under Bush, which is still relatively high, and not in any way the fault of "the left."

C) Bush was overwhelmingly more popular than Stalin, with 51% favorable opinion vs. 7% for Stalin.

http://victimsofcommunism.org/wp-con...pline-Data.pdf

14. Q13: True or false: More people were killed under George W. Bush’s presidency than
Joseph Stalin’s leadership.
True 26%
False 74%

You are aware that HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON voted for the war based on the same faulty intelligence, right?


Just checking.

Any comparison is meaningless. More, less, as many is a worthless argument. "Well Bush didn't kill as many as Stalin".

Is that really the standard we want to hold our politicians to?

Bush and yes, Obama also (among many others) deserve to rot in hell for what they have done.

2 questions: How many battalions did we send to Yemen, Libya, Syria,etc.
Were any of those military actions precipitated by 935 lies?

The question should be "How many have been killed over our unjustifiable actions"?
