That's you that hasn't a clue. You didn't even read anything. Scientists complained about Bush for his entire 8 years. Bush even wanted to push "magical creation".
What does former President Bush's belief in creation have to do with the issue of war? Nothing. More deflection.
I made the statement:
My feeling is that it's hard to point blame. America voted Bush into office. He was under qualified for the job. It was way over his head. The Republican party has been taken over by the extreme right wing. Anti education. Anti science. This was the "perfect storm". Can it really be someones "fault" if they were stupid to begin with?
Then it was someone else who laughably suggested Bush was "pro science".
So what could be the connection? If you are so stupid that you believe in "mystical creation", then it's extremely possible that you could be misled into attacking another country without provocation and without understanding the consequences.
Besides, what we did to Iraq wasn't "war". We leveled a country. It takes two sides for a war.
War: a conflict carried on by force of arms, as between nations or between parties within a nation; warfare, as by land, sea, or air.
There was no war "between" us.
The highlighted part makes sense if you believe logical fallacies are valid and substantive foundations of reasoned thinking.
As to 'underqualified,' former President Bush met the constitutional requirements to be President. It doesn't matter how much previous experience a person may have in various fields. Once a person gets to the White House, they are a Presidential virgin.
If you believe former President Bush was "underqualified," President Obama fits that bill as well.
What is the purpose of debating whether or not former President Bush lied, unless you are seeking to have him brought up on charges of impeachment. I haven't seen you make that case in this thread. So, what is your point? Like it or not, we are there. President Obama is carrying on with the same kind of mantra.
