- ignored the international community and called them cowards for not backing his Iraq invasion
- Abandoned the war on terror to invade Iraq
- Lied about Iraq having WMDs and being involved in 9-11
It's amazing isn't it?
That Bush had such overwhelming national and international support after 9-11. To think what Bush could have accomplished
Instead, Bush made the following blunders
- ignored the international community and called them cowards for not backing his Iraq invasion
- Abandoned the war on terror to invade Iraq
- Lied about Iraq having WMDs and being involved in 9-11
- Ignored human rights and locked up people in Gitmo without charges and without a trial
- Engaged in TORTURE
- Botched the number of troops on the ground in Iraq
As a result, Bushs approval ratings dropped from 86% to 26%

Abandoned War on Terror... HOw do you think Osama was killed... Obama didn't think the plan up as NAIVELY you must think???
LIed about WMDs??
THEN WHAT DID THESE people do???
BEFORE BUSH ... When CLINTON was President...
"..deny Iraq the capacity to develop WMD".Bill Clinton,1998
"..most brutal dictators of Century", Biden,1998
"Iraq compliance with Resolution 687 becomes shell game"..Daschle 1998
"He will use those WMDs again,as he has ten times since 1983" ..Berger- Clinton National. Security. Advisor 1998
"posed by Iraq's refusal to end its WMD programs" Levin 1998
"Saddam has been engaged in development of WMDs which is a threat.."Pelosi 1998
"Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building WMDS.."Albright 1999
" Ignored human rights and locked up people in Gitmo without charges and without a trial"
Are you really that naive??? GEEZ these terrorists in GITMO were NEVER covered under the geneva conventions which are countries... these guys never belonged!
They were TRIED under MILITARY rules cause this is a "WAR on TERRORISM" you get it???
TORTURE??? 3 guys held under water boarding! THE SAME TORTURE used in our military training!!!
But why are you responding because YOU don't believe any of the events occurred. Bush was the boogie man because YOU believe EVERYTHING you read!
Coalition of the willing?
Tonga, Latvia, Mongolia sending a few dozen token troops?
Where was Mexico, France, Germany......Canada?
They all told Bush he was crazy and that Iraq was no threat. Bush told them "My way or the highway" and called them cowards. A glaring reason why Bush's overwhelming global support disappeared

Provide a link where any head of state called Bush crazy and where Bush called them cowards. If you can, I will admit I am wrong. If you can't, perhaps you should eat shit and die.
- Abandoned the war on terror to invade Iraq
The War in Iraq was, of course, part of the larger war on terror.
48 countries supported the Iraq invasion, and 40 contributed troops to operations there.
LOL
Coalition of the willing Bullshit
Even Canada told Bush he was fucking crazy to invade Iraq
Don't hurt yourself trying to move those goal posts, miss.
The War in Iraq was, of course, part of the larger war on terror.
Bullshit
The war on terror was in Afghanistan and Pakistan which President Obama so ably proved
Bullshit, he's fighting it in Pakistan.

the Bush Administration finished with the deepest "Great Recession" since the 1930s Great Depression - in part for the Off-Budget on Credit, Unprovoked Iraqi war.
LOL

Some Goalpost
Tell us again how those two soldiers from Iceland helped out
Diplomatically they did not call him crazy.

Oh please....save me your childishness
Diplomatically they did not call him crazy. However they did call his assertions of an imminent Iraqi threat to be unfounded, the UN told Bush to wait, UN weapons inspectors told Bush there was no evidence. Even NATO wouldn't back him
It was a blunder of epic proportions that will be the Bush legacy
