Smart guy? No, not really. I just happen to have an opinion that does not match up with yours and many others.
The discussion was not about who was responsible.
We were discussing who owns the problems that came with the job as the incoming POTUS. And additionally making a point that if one has not done much during their tenure except blame someone else....as Obama and his administration has done on very many issues for the past 7 years.
Being responsible does not have to equate to who or what caused or allowed a given issue. OWNERSHIP? The person who is POTUS at the time owns the issue or the problem. And what is pertinent is what has been done or not about it during their tenure.
Actually quite a simple attribute. Except for those who either use or accept an excuse (of any kind) for inaction. Doing or not doing something plus an excuse does not make it right ....or somebody elses!

The OP said at the conclusion of the very short post
"Was 9/11 W's fault"
Pretty clear and concise question. If you are the OP, you got your reply.
You NOW say the conversation was "not about who was responsible" And you refer to incoming Presidents and problems they inherit.....NOT the same as the OP. Also answered many times. Clearly Bush took ownership and you can criticize him for whatever you want, but I do not recall him blaming Clinton...he simply did his job.
You then made a listing of embassy attacks by Presidents in office and asked "what does that demonstrate"
You made clear NO POINT to any of it, had all direct questions answered and made quite a few snide remarks about what responses were given.
Conversation is a two way thing.
What is your point and perhaps instead of mocking people who tried to respond, you could clarify and attempt to answer their questions.
Instead of passing judgement, allow us that lofty opinion
