He misled the country and it was a total cluster. So It looks like you still believe that it was all GWB fault for the war,we are all entitled to our opinions some right some wrong no matter what the facts state.

I mean he didn't choose the time in which the world trade centers were hit. Once his term was up it was Obama's turn to carry the torch and he screwed up. We can blame only Obama it was also his advisors that steered him in the direction he took. Obama's cabinet, and advisors screwed his presidency as much as he did. It was the iraq war. He was a bit hands tied on afghanistan I think, but iraq was an unmitigated disaster and absolutely unnecessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the iraq war, yes more or less I think it was his fault and I have thought for many years he and his immediate cabinet should have been brought up on charges for what they did. This is the longest war the US has ever been in, completely unnecessary, and fomented on trumped up and wantonly incorrect information. It was negligent in the extreme and there has never been an atonement for it. Instead, we've had 1M+ people dead as a result and trillions flushed down the toilet as well. Meanwhile he retires happy as a lark in Texas. It's wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends how much knowledge they had about the lies being knowingly told. The public was clearly misled, and there is no denying that. It's a demonstrable fact: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/washington/2003-09-06-poll-iraq_x.htm Congress was as well, though anybody who voted on it and has a substantially more in dept knowledge about the scam being laid should be charged also. I'm sad that so many people think lying about a war and then conducting it is just something to shrug about and carry on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called politics. But we finally have a clear-thinking President who doesn't give a sh*t about politics. I fully support him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I surely don't agree with what was done.I do believe there were many other circumstances involved that us the public wasn't privey too.Any chemical mass destruction items that were never found there,were probably moved with all the time that was allowed between when they said they were going to inspect to when the inspection actually happened. Think about the illegal AR'S that are in your house and Coumo sends a letter that they will inspect your house in 2 weeks,I'm sure they are moved immediately.This is just a example i am not insinuating anything on your part. I do believe that any thing that has a connection to the gov.has to be looked at thru the BS meter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully support him. I hate obama's political correctness and his inability to speak of islamic terrorism. But I feel like the whole country was so misled over iraq that when obama was running in 2008 and one of the few brave enough to have voted against that invasion i thought hell, sign me up. Let's do this. And eight years later, the fact he has yet to embroil the country in another--frankly treasonous--adventure somewhere, costing blood and treasure, is why for me Obama could never have been as bad a president as Bush. I differ with him ideologically in virtually every way, but bush was incompetent, negligent, and IMO criminal. That's why I consider him to be one of the country's worst presidents ever. I'm glad trump won and I'm sick to death of progressives. But, i still hold a special place in my heart for scorn for Bush over starting the iraq war.

Just so I understand. you voted for Obama because Bush (who wasn't even running) took us into the war? and you do know he wasn't in office to vote for or against the invasion? He didn't get into national office until 2004, i think. the invasion was 2003+-. he did constantly say he didn't support the war but voted in favor of every budget for it.
