If all Bush wanted was to be remembered, Afghanistan woulda done it.
Let's face it: The Dems are largely the people opposing Bush's actions in Iraq. They've also been against him on every policy since the beginning of the Administration. Education, the economy... and then after 9-11, he wasn't handling Afghanistan properly, the Patriot Act was a restraint on our liberties, the Department of Homeland Security was a 'farce', our National Terror Levels are stupid, everything's stupid.
I'm surprised this doesn't make anybody suspicious. It looks to me like all they want is to regain power, no matter WHAT.
Once again: We did Iraq because we weren't getting any solid intelligence out of there. All that came out were mixed messages going both ways.
When you have a country like Iraq, with an intelligence picture like this, that's all it takes for them to be a security threat. That's all.
There's an unspoken policy we have about the third world, and totalitarian regimes in general, folks: Kindly let us spy on you, all we want, or we'll nail you to the wall. |
