Hard to say this was the worst political move in history because he did get reelected but it is certainly on the short list. All this rewriting of the Bush legacy that has gone on the last few weeks, this is the image that people should remember.

    Really? Did Obama stage a photo-op on an aircraft carrier to declare mission accomplished while troops were still dying on the battlefield? I must have missed that.

    Troops are still dying on the battlefield.

    That's right...a battlefield created by the lies told by Cheney, Rove, Rumsfeld, Rice, and Powell

    or did you miss all of that from 2003-2009???

    I saw on the Fox News Channel the other day (in the gym) that the country is ready for another Bush as POTUS in 2016. I burst out laughing. :lol:

    obama- 4 people died in a foreign country that nobody cares about. 4 people that would not have even been there had our government ever felt the urge to stop expanding our empire and meddling in the middle east and africa.

    3000 people died on american soil, resulting in us being lied into 2 wars that ruined our entire economy and cost a million lives.

    you can not even pretend to compare the two.

    then again, you get your news from fox, and they do a nice job of it.

    this is the image that we should all remember so that the neocons never ever have any power or influence in this world ever again.

    Okay, I'm know I'm in the minority when comes to libs on this, but after all these years I have changed my opinion on this (and probably this alone) when it comes to Presidient Bush. I don't fault him for sitting there for a bit, I mean really, there wasn't much information coming I. at that point, and personally I'm glad he remained calm. It would have been even worse had he freaked the fuck out right there.

    Fan or not of the man, I highly reccomend reading his book, "Decision Points".
    I disagree with him on so much, but let's face it... There ain't a swinging Dick here that knows how they would react in his situation. Much like President Obama is not quick to call things a terrorist attack until he has more info. I'm gonna give Junior a pass on this one.

    Okay... Light me up! :)
    Peace, Love.
