Obama gave birth to ISIS. GWB has an alibi and wasn't anywhere near Obama in the timeframe where he could have been the sire.

Obama said the economy is thriving under his administration and even Joe Biden declared the summer of recovery in 2010..... Oops! there we go fantacizing again.
Once again, the GWB fan club not only practices projection but displays a stunning disengagement with reality

What is sad is that the choice came down to GWB or Gore. Surely we can do better than this. The country lost either way.

Iraq didn't "allow" them to exist. The only al-Qaeda linked camps in Iraq prior to 2003 were in Kurdistan.

But Clinton's bubble was slowly showing signs of bursting by 2001. I don't think much would have changed in regards to economics, really.

Wait until 2016 it may come down Hillary and some Tea Party candidate, at that point I will just stay home and get drunk and realize the Nation is on it's last leg and doom to fall very soon.

Had Clinton been able to run again he would have won hands down over any candidate that actually ran, EVERY poll at the time came up with that same result. Heck if he ran again today he would probably beat anyone they ran against him, even Hillary, heck especially Hillary

What terrorist camps now???

Why don't you get it through your head, Saddam's Iraq was a stable, secular country.
Not much similar to our version of democracy but then which middle eastern country is?
Saddam was a tyrant but there are NO other rulers in Middle East.

By invading Iraq we destroyed the delicate balance between Sunni and Shia and by giving power to Shia in Iraq we pushed many Sunnis towards extremist and militant Wahabis.
By invading Iraq we opened Pandora's box that no one could close now...

Don't mind him, he lives in a fantasy world where they get to make reality fit their own view of what it should be, facts are not a factor is such places

I know, I know. Just for kicks I was watching Fox yesterday and could believe the campaign they run trying to portray GWB as a visionary who was able to forsee the rise of terrorist groups in Iraq as he was initially against withdrawal of troops. Of course fox new failed to mention that prior to our invasion there were no terrorists in Iraq altogether but that's a minor detail, isn't it? Lol
Idiot Bush as a visionary lol. You didnt have to be a visionary to realize that the regime WE established in Iraq was not going to last without support from our troops lol. Duh.
