our self-interest in seeing iran contained never changed. i think bush endangered us and the entire middle east by leaving iran unchecked.
i think bush was the most dangerous, most ignorant president i have ever seen.
You're welcome to your opinion about Bush. I have a lot of problems with him too, mostly about not "driving the bus". He let the "free market" run wild and it hurt his legacy by leaving under the cloud of the "Great Recession".
IMHO Obama ($17-trillion debt) and Clinton (don't want OBL) were more "dangerous" because Obama spent too much and Clinton didn't oppose terrorism as vigorously as he should have. Obama continues most of the programs Bush used, so I'm not sure what your whine is about?
1. government has to spend money when the economy fails. bush was left with a surplus that he pissed away by being the only leader in recorded history to cut taxes during wartime.
2. the whole clinton didn't want obl meme is a lie and has no relationship to reality. in fact, clinton was obsessed with obl but baby bush wouldn't let himself be briefed on obl when he got into office. he was only interested in iraq b/c he had surrounded himself with the cheney, rumsfeld contingent of neo-cons.
bullshit, clinton had at least two chances to have bin laden and pussied out both times.
3. baby bush would have done well to listen to his father... instead of 'the father'.
