What is it about Texan US Presidents & monumentally disasterous US wars? Might it be because they fight every

Question

war like it's the Alamo?

Answer 1

LOL, good correlation there.

LBJ - vietnam
Dubya - iraq

Answer 2

But you know what, they might have lost the battle at the Alamo, but they won the war and were able to get the Mexicans off our land. Something the entire country has yet to do. As governors of Texas, they did a very exceptional job. Bush just got stuck in a sticky situation that started in the Clinton Administration. Here's proof.

You see, the new problems with Iraq started during the Clinton Administration. So it wouldn't have mattered who was elected president, everyone was convinced that action was needed against Saddam. So try doing research into the past events that really happened before you start ranting about something you obviously know nothing about.

Answer 3

Gotta remember, LBJ did not start the Vietnam war, he just kept it going.

Also remember that Bush Sr. did not start the Iraq war. Saddam Hussein started it with an invasion of Kuwait. Also, the US was part of a coalition to get Iraq out of Kuwait and to make sure this did not happen again. The only disaster in that war was that we did not get Saddam out of power then.

I am not finding a correlation between presidents from Texas and monumentally disasterous wars.

Answer 4

based completely on the action picture "Independence Day", the respond may be confident, yet it rather is probably no longer the main suitable source for studying your question. first of all, the President must be a minimum of 35, and the protection rigidity purely accepts infantrymen as much as age 40 two (military). If he grow to be already a soldier, i think of he/she'd ought to resign their fee until eventually now turning out to be President - a civilian positioned up. nevertheless, you gotta love the assumption of former army SEAL & previous Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura prevailing the White abode in 2008 and then piloting an A-10 Warthog (which might then, by way of definition, be Air rigidity One) over a terrorist camp in Afghanistan, popping off Hellfire and Sidewindre missiles at each little thing in sight.

Answer 5

I think Curt just provided you with the "best" answer to your somewhat misguided question. However to provide you with some additional input you might want to consider that during the history of the United States there have been only rare occasions in which we have been involved in "disastrous wars".... and in these instances it was not because of who happened to be President (or what State the person was from) at the time.

Answer 6

Because Texas' presidents seem to understand what you don't; That some things are worth fighting for.

Answer 7

Why are Libs STILL in denial that JFK was responsible for our active military involvement in Vietnam?

Answer 8

Fortunately we have non-Texans like yourself who would permit dictators to basically do what they wish, whenever they wish to do so.

Saddam would have loved you.
