If someone would have told me...
Posted: Sep 9, 2015
How one administration could do so much damage in the world in such a short span of time, I would not have believed it. If there is anyone out there now who doesn't believe that the US has a role in shaping and maintaining the world order, they are hiding their head in the sand.
I hope that the next president of the United States understands our role in the world and with God's help can restore some sanity to the world...;
Iran deal. Who would have ever thought this - would happen?

I know, how great is the Iran deal? - Peace instead of war
[ In Reply To ..]
Whodathunk we were capable of this, a deal even Colin Powell is applauding?
Dick Cheney's grandstanding opposition is for one of two reasons (or maybe both?): According to Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, he has lost his mind. OR maybe he wants another war so his billionaire status owning Halliburton can get doubled again. You know he ain't giving it away to help veterans like some other billionaires, not that guy.
Hmmm...all the good guys are for this agreement, all the crazies who love war are against it (Netan-yahoo, the right's poster boy, of course - what an absolute jerk!).
I so wish all these war lovers would have to sacrifice their family members instead of those who have been killed in their thousands for this country for these idiotic wars. It might make them think twice before pushing this disgusting agenda.
It is a great deal, so glad you agree!!!
How does Iran having a nuclear weapon prevent war? - ...

The deal gives them billions of dollars, allows them to inspect their own nuclear plants, and they chant "Death to America." Seriously - that a good deal?
That's how the White House is portraying people - who are against it as "pro war"
[ In Reply To ..]
but it has nothing to do with that. Iran will use their nukes on Israel, and in this "agreement" America has to protect IRAN in case of a war!
This world is a house of cards.

How many people died on Bush's watch and in the war he started?
He didnt start it. He responded to a terrorist threat - and stopped many more.

You can spin it all you want. Eight years of the press doing it was enough for me.
People seem to forget, Congress voted for it, as did Kerry (before he voted against it).

All they did was further destabilize the Middle East.

George W. Bush ... worst president evah. - thrice

GWB left the country upside down in a ditch on fire.
I hate to say it, but Bush had nothing to do with the - crash whatsoever. The crash resulted
[ In Reply To ..]
...from Democrat policies - and in particular, those of Barney Frank and Chuck Schumer - with respect to the housing market and Fannie Mae, pushing subprime mortgages so that "everybody" could own a home.
The Republicans tried several times during Bush's administration to tighten up the mortgage requirements, and warned that a crash was coming, but the Democrats defeated it each time.
Facts are inconvenient things. Just because something happens during a President's term doesn't mean he is responsible for it.
Bush had a Republican majority congress - sm

"Stable" is a relative term. He invaded the country, absolutely wrecked it. It bore no resemblance to the country that it had been previously. Bush tried to negotiate to stay in the country. Iraq did not want us there. So we had to leave. Civil war ensued. Is that what you mean by "stable?"
Of course Iraq didn's bear any resemblance to - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]
the country it had been...that's because the people weren't under the murdering dictator Sadam Hussain, who tested his chemical weapons on his own people (over 10,000 citizens dead in one town) and killed anyone if he felt like it. Over 90% of the citizens were happy we were there.
A democracy was being set up. Instead of fighting for a better SOFA, Obama turned tail and ran, leaving the people of Iraq almost helpless without completing the training necessary to fight the enemy. Weapons don't fight, people do, and if the people had the correct training, they would have been able to keep their country safe.
But that's a moot point, isn't it? Because we'll never know any other ending and arguing over "it's Bush's fault" is a void argument and a cop-out.
There has never been such thing as a "stable" - Iraq, or any middle eastern nation.

is mind back. Then, he'd refrain from judging such a "controversial issue" and do nothing and side with the terrorists because we are an evil colonialist nation according to him.
Remember when he called ISIS the "JV" team? - sm

Remember his "red line in the sand" for Syria? I could go on and on. He's a colossal failure at best. We have 498 days to go until he's out. I bet there will be parties (not riots) in the street that day!
