27. That was very prescient of you

He certainly brought about wars and recession in record time. Of course, it wasn't his fault that we were attacked on 9/11*, but he was responsible for his war hawk reaction. I think he went into office determined to invade Iraq as he was competing with his own father. 9/11 gave him the excuse he needed.

So what did your repug friend say?

* I know some people do hold him accountable, but I think he was more guilty of negligence when he overlooked the "Bin Laden determined to strike in the U.S." report. I'm not so sure about some of the other members of the Bush administration though. Many benefited from the invasion of Iraq.
