Careful you make to much sense-the Dems won't like it.

You probably never heard the phrase, "The buck stops here." That was a placard on President Harry Truman's desk. He was man enough to take responsibility for what he did, and he was involved in a messy war, too.
Well, let's see, gosh, obviously only the anti-King George the Moron folks 'polarize the nation.' Republicans calling critics traitors or 'aiding the enemy' or 'with us or for the terrorists' or telling a senior Senator to go f*** himself aren't polarizing. Gosh! Who knew??
So we should all be little sheep and follow the moron no matter what lunatic thing he does---and the list is very, very long. It will take decades for the harm Bush has done to be overcome, long after everyone reading this has gone on to his or her next life.

Neither-we are stimply stating a fact. Andsorry-it was Bush and his cohorts who got us into this war.
The Congress--and the American people--originally supprted the war based on the misinformation (lies) Bush provided. So it is 100% HIS war.
And it is clear that both Congress and the American people are demanding a change--the only ones still pursuing this war of agression are Bush and what few supporters he has left.
And--on another subject--he is not "our" president. He lost any right to claim that when he decided the Constitution was "just a damn piece of paper." He has no right to clall himself an American, much less President.

There are actually 3 wars but only 2 locations engage our military. Troops in large number are in both: Iraq & Afghanistan I do not believe Bush's claim that we need to fight there in order not to fight here. Then, we are at war at home against illegals who have launched a 12-30 million personnel invasion. No troops are protecting us.

Bush was "the decider" who started the war, ignored the generals, and spent 4 years "staying the course" despite obvious evidence he was failing.
Also, Bush was the one who hired PR firm Weber Shandwick Worldwide and Charlotte Beers "the queen of Madison Avenue" to come up with an ad campaign to sell the war like you would sell any other product. Then he screamed and howled and generally pitched a hissy fit until he got his war.

President Bush was given the sole right by the resolution Congress passed to make the decision to go to war with Iraq or not go to war with Iraq. He chose to go to war. Since then he has very vigorously informed all of us that he is The Decider. I'd say he's pretty much claimed the responsibility for this war himself. The rest of us are just obliging his command to remember that he's The Decider by calling it Bush's War. Got a problem with that? Talk to him. It's his ball game, and his alone, according to him.

Calling the debacle in Iraq "Bush's War" is just calling a spade a spade, my dear.
It's also his daddy's war and all his criminal cronies. Better?

Bush chose to attack. Congress did not live up to their responsibility and signed away their authority to declare war.

Not at all surprising that those who call it that have no concept of the fact that
IT IS OUR WAR.
Thank goodness that we have had a responsible decider in the Oval Office to represent those who don't even know how to begin properly representing themselves.

There's no safety in war, period. Just as we blame Clinton for Kosovo, we should blame Bush for Iraq.
