You break it, you own it. President Bush owns the invasion, the pull out, and good deal of the mess his policies left behind.
I think Jeb would get less gop turnout than Mitt did. Personally, I'd have been happy to vote for Mitt if he'd just eschewed a little of the TPM bullshite he spouted, and toned down the 47%. We do have too many people turning to Social Sec Disability because they can't find jobs to replace those they lost, but that's different from blaming things on people who worked 30plus years or who had the misfortune to get sick.A college student told likely GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush on Wednesday that his brother, former President George W. Bush, was to blame for the rise of the Islamic State.
The heated confrontation took place at a town hall meeting in Reno, Nevada, according to The New York Times. Ivy Ziedrich, 19, a student at the University of Nevada, approached the former Florida governor to question him about comments he had made during the event. Bush had argued that the Obama administration's weak foreign policy was responsible for the rise of the terrorist group, also known as ISIS, in the Middle East.
Ziedrich countered that Obama wasn't to blame -- and that it was his predecessor's decision to disband the Iraqi army that made the group's formation possible.
"Your brother created ISIS," she told Bush.
What followed was a contentious exchange, according to the Times. Ziedrich accused Bush of "spouting nationalist rhetoric to get us involved in more wars," pointing out that under his brother, the U.S. had spent years in the Middle East, waging "pointless wars where we send young American men to die for the idea of American exceptionalism."
Bush responded by defending the war in Iraq. "When we left Iraq, security had been arranged, al Qaeda had been taken out," he said. "There was a fragile system that could have been brought up to eliminate the sectarian violence."

I totally agree! The student is 100% correct. Jeb can't escape the truth. In fact, the ISIS mess can even be traced back to former President George H.W. Bush when he suckered Saddam into invading Kuwait.

If President Bushes Iraq policy was a success I'd hate to see what one of his failures would look like.
I'd say you're right, but the "fault" of the Iraq gambit was W did not think we'd have to have a korea type of multi-generational military commitment so as to restrain one party rule excesses for a democracy to grow, and when it became necessary to make that commitment he failed to sell it to America and find the revenue for it. Instead, he just left it as a festering wound for a successor. Not totally unlke what LBJ did in SE Asia.I actually thought that 911 started all of this.
