Gotta love it when someone has a relative that went into combat. Everyone knows someone "else" that went. That is supposed to make their statement credible.

So, I will legitimize my statement also, but with one difference. I served in Vietnam for two tours. 60K were killed in combat. I served in Desert storm and I was also in Baghdad in 2003 during Iraqi Freedom and was in the Al Rasheed when it was struck by 21 rockets while the World Series was going back here in the states. But, I also was in Baghdad when almost a half million bodies were uncovered in mass graves from when Sadaam used WMDs on his own people. I talked with the Iraqi people and they were so happy that we were there. At least the ones that talked to me. One story related to me explained how Sadaam and his brother used to drive down the city street looking for young women. When they found one they thought interesting, they would kidnap her and take her back to his palace, rape and kill her. One young male Iraqi told me that his sister had been kidnapped, never to be seen again. I was also told that before Sadaam fled the city, he released all the felony murders, prisoners from jail. Do I think that Bush made some mistakes? Not with Iraq. I received incoming fire almost every day that I was in Iraq. Was it Bush's fault? Not in my opinion.

In my opinion, Bush's only fault was allowing his tax cut that allowed the lower half of the income groups to either pay no taxes or very little taxes. Some folks that did not pay taxes even received a refund(?). That program is called the Earned income tax credit, also a Republican plan that I believe started under Ford and later expanded.

But, all that aside I find it very disingenuous that liberals continue to blame Bush for their poor choice of president. I realize that it was either a choice of Obama or Hillary and that caused a conundrum. Now, they have a choice of Hillary or the other socialist, Sanders. Another conundrum. They have the choice of the old or the antique. Not very progressive.
