Now, where's your outrage at the Last Guy's failure in that regard? That actually DID happen, yet you focus on what MIGHT happen under Obama. But, hey, that's what partisanship-over-patriotism is all about, right?

To SET the Record Straight on who's WATCH created this problem is so straight forward.
Just last week there was a documentary on the collapses of Big Business. The Pyramid system at the TOP levels. Enron was the first to hit the skids. Believe it or not a few men at the TOP caused this not ANY PRESIDENT!!! Then it Blossomed. Tyco Etc. A president can NOT sit in BIG business board meetings. You just get blamed if you happen to be President then. Even Investors I knew with Records Profits in the Market too long knew something was a miss. Then again its the FCC to try and chase that down.
I DO remember Clinton with the "Everyone should Own a home" And PUSHED Banks to Make Loans and reset if necessary the acceptance applications levels. This created the Same basic problem in the Loan Banking system Not unlike Enron, bad Books. After Clinton's Demands on the Market the Banks got shader and to meet Pres expectations Sub Standard Loans were Made. Not to Mention Acrons involvement in that system.
Bush later Mentioned there was a problem with Mac and May But oooh don't mess with the "Poor folk" in buying a Home..
I remember both Speech's. Clinton and Bush

Not only is that a complete lie but a twisted lie for political gain. It's amazing we ended up pulling the people of Iraq out from such an evil and corrupt environment into a sustainable government. As my friends come home from Iraq it's truly heartwarming the country that exist now over the chaos and bloodshed that existed everyday. Family with their heads cut off in high school football fields every day.
Not only a cornerstone of peace in the middle east but an area of contention between Iran and Iraq which would have been explosive now if not worse had we not put the cornerstone of peace there.
Where would we be? The ORIGINAL Iraq invasion a UN mission to free Kuwaiti from Iraq who was committing rape, murder, genocide, and wiping a country from the face of the planet! Our hope that the people of Iraq could stand up against the dictators in charge once we capped them in the knee.
Democrats pulled support from the American people and there was no way we could go all the way.
Good goals, but didn’t workout. As Clinton fired a bomb at Baghdad once a week to keep them at bay, run down our military recourses, just to let it be some one else’s problem.
Un sanction after UN sanction violated with the UN members bribed to turn their head. We finally finished what we started. The war itself was only a couple weeks.
Democrats supported the invasion. They wanted us to topple Saddam and WALK AWAY letting other dictators and Iran take over!!! This IS NOT WHO WE ARE! We don’t knock over dictators and let other countries crush what is left but it’s ALL THE DEMOCRATS WANTED!!!!
So where would we be if we knocked over Saddam and walked away? Iraq taking over Iran, the world would have NEVER let us take up the battle in Afghanistan, and the ENTIRE middle east would be the beginning of WWIII!.
FIICK the Clintons, Jane Fonda, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi who put Political agenda AHEAD of honor dignity, national and world security!!!
FIICK Obama for his RADICAL agenda proven OVER and OVER again which is ANTI-AMERICAN!!!!
And some di-ck head says we should have invaded Afghanistan first.
We had not finished what we started. When the police arrest parents of children, do they let the children fend for themselves? No they come in and take care of the children.
Is it fair to topple a dictator and not take care of the people? That's all the Democrats wanted. That's why they voted for the war. Take out Saddam Hussein because it would feel good! But let the people fend for themselves. It's who the democrats are. Party like it's 1999 then have an abortion when done.
Kill the babies but save the whales! That's the democrats motto!

What most people don't understand is these countries are bound by boarder; boarders put down by the UN. What does this mean? You an I know where the lines are drawn on a map but the groups in these reasons come and go like there is no difference in countries.
Even in going after the groups in Afghanistan this was a truly smart move. In Iraq the groups we would be and are fighting in Afghanistan came to us. We inialated a huge portion of the groups in Afghanistan not in the hills and jungles of Afghanistan but in the flats of Iraq.
People don't understand the complexity of Afghanistan. You don't bomb the hell out of it and walk away. When you go into a village they often don't even associate themselves with a country and are not even sure why you are there. You end up making friends with the village by helping with projects such as schools, a little nation building and in return they trust you to set them free of the groups which suppress them.
This takes time and resources. It's a lot of work. Through this process we gain support of the people we are there to defend and protect building teaching and building their support.
It's a long process. We are still in Germany and other countries after we re-build the adversary nations of WWII. These countries are grateful and great allies now.
The middle east is far more uneducated and tribal like. The gains we are making are huge. Failure means a collapse of the middle east; all of it. The order of our missions in Iraq and Afghanistan is on track...
Would have been on track if Obama would have been working with the military leaders making decisions instead of spending his time throwing the USA under the bus and campaigning to the world for himself.
Almost a 100 days of no decision making which should have been done on a day to day bases. For Obama it's all about Obama while Afghanistan is going backwards from lack of support. It will take a year to get the footing we have lost from Obama ignoring the whole thing for 100day. Obama is nothing but a fu-ckup.

Being a democrat, knowing the lacksadasical ways most Americans behave... Secret Service this past week with Obamas gathering. I can honestly , give W a pass . I can not , however, give W a pass for taking troops from Afghan to go into Iraq, a country that never attacked us , had anything to do with 911 and had no WMDs... although even if they had WMDs , its not our job to police the world. Had we stayed concentrated in Afghan-Pakistan , Osama would have been brought to justice, one way or another.

Being a Republican, I can honestly AGREE with this assessment regarding the lacksadasical actions of the Bush admin with respect to pending 9/11 intel and also of the Obama admin with respect to their unwanted house guests.
I can also agree with your assessment regarding the Bush admins mistake in going full bore into Iraq while letting the Afghan situation go un-attended. My only contention with this post is taht I do believe it was our responsibility to disarm Iraq.
I think the Bush admin's mistakes came in not looking at the situations in Iraq and Afghanistan as one operation and not two. Had they looked at the operations as parts of a whole, perhpas they could have better managed troops and resources. Failing to recognize the security sitiuation in Iraq post-Saddam didn't help much either.
