For those that feel Bush didn't handle post 9/11 well. What would you have done different?

Answer 1

Declare war on Al Qaeda and not Iraq.

Also, I would have told the people in NYC that the air is poisonous because of the WTC falling. Bush told them that it was safe and people are still dying because of it.

Answer 2

Monday night quarter-backing isn't my style. Hopefully the leftist in congress will give Bush the latitude that we need to stabilize the region.

Otherwise we will witness a slaughter similar to the 3 million when we left Vietnam. The slaughter of millions will be on the Democratic lefts hands and they should be considered the "new butcher's of Baghdad" if this comes to pass.

God Bless

A stable free Iraq is the center piece in the war on terror. A free Iraq will destabilize the Iranian extremist government. Iranians are generally a pro western people. When they see the average Iraqi receiving his fare share oil revenue check each year (as in Kuwait) they will want theirs too.

A robust economy awaits Iraq as in turkey and the Iranians and Syrians will have to assimilate or get left out of the economic pie.

Terrorist funding would be reduced from a river to a dripping faucet thus ending the stronghold Hezbollah has enjoyed in Lebanon and the Palestinian people may actually enjoy statehood.

Answer 3

Not gone into Iraq. Solidify our position in Afghanistan. Immediately begun a dialog with all of the countries of the middle east, including Iran and Syria. The good will towards the US after 9/11 created a opportunity that was squandered by the current administration.

Answer 4

Concentrated on Bin Laden, but Bush had this Iraq thing planned from the day that he was elected, 911 gave him an excuse!

Answer 5

I would never of invaded Iraq, Afghansatn and the border with Pak. would have been flooded with our troops, searching for and destroying Bin Ladden, if I did not first nuke them! I would have also cut all ties to Saudi Arabia, as they supplied the highjackers, Bin Ladden's family and construtcion group would not be in existance but bombed in to the stone age and any Bin Ladden's here on 911 would not have been allowed to leave, but detained and questioned then held for investigation to establish ties or not to their relative Osama, also I would of seized all Saudi assets held in the US.

Answer 6

I would have fired the heads of the CIA, FBI and the Secretary of Defense for gross negligence and iicompetence

DEFENSE is not just spending money on high tech military TOYS.

Defense is knowing yourself and you enemy like the back of your hand

That was the 2nd time the WTC was bombed...yet we are letting anyone and everyone in this nation.

OSAMA could have gotten thru our borders chanting I hate america.....and our LOSER Government Officials would have let him in.

Also ...there were good people in our Government that tried to warn the idiots in charge.....those people would have been offered the replacement jobs at the VERY TOP of those agencies

Answer 7

Stop tying the hands or our soldiers and let them do what they can do if we turn them loose. They would have had it secure by now. Also they should have made more use of the Iraqi's early on especially General George Sada who wanted to take some of his own men and secure Baghdad, I believe as an Iraqi he could have done it much easier as many liked him.

Answer 8

I, personnally think he should've gone in there, Hells Bells. But that's just me. It had become a "Kill or Be killed" arena. He had to satisfy the Liberal Limp-wrists. And go all soft on `em. Which caused the deaths of Sodliers that they blame him for!

Answer 9

Listened to Bill Clinton's intelligence, and not been such a smug Conservative leader. You do remember about the "MY PET GOAT" incident don't you? Here is a recap of the event to refresh your memory.....Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WztB6HzXxI

Answer 10

Easy answer, I would not have invaded Iraq. Just think what that amount of money could have been spent on not to mention the lives lost.
