I remember when Bush was running for president the first time my brother a Reagan worshiper said during the GOP primaries about Bush, "He has bankrupted ever business he's been involved with to date!" Guess you can add the Nation to the list now!

Yes, Hillary Clinton, so far out of the loop, she must've been an idiot when she voted for war.

IF Iraq becomes a responsible Middle Eastern nation that provides stability against Iran and becomes a bulwark against state-sponsored terrorism then he may be seen in a more favorable light as years go by. On domestic issues such as the economy he may be seen as just as bad as Calvin Coolidge, if not worse. His prosecution of two wars without paying for them and his lowering of the tax burden on the wealthy has created a huge deficit that was only made worse by the recession that followed. Actually as far as the economy goes he will never be seen as a positive force in American history....he may be worse than Calvin Coolidge.

I would not hold my breath on Iraq, al Malaki has come out in favour of Bashar al Assad and has pissed of all neighbour states with the sole exception of Iran.

Joe Biden was right, should have divided it into three states, Sunni, Kurd and Shia. Most of northern Iraq used to be a major chunk of Kurdistan anyway.

Well one thing we know is that he does not like the name "Bush tax cuts" being applied to the Bush tax cuts he did back in 2001 and 2003....duh.
