Like many people, we thought the day we caught Saddam Hussein that then the war would rapidly wind down. Instead, due to terrible mistakes and poor planning, it has turned into an everyday horror show.
Retired high-ranking military men verify this almost every day on very respected news shows on Fox News. Also this has been said by the most conservative people. They all say our troops have had their hands tied from the beginning which severely restricted and limited what they could do.
It is my opinion as well as many others' that several hundred of our troops have died needlessly due to being overly kind to the enemy. Many have said we should have taken the gloves off and laid the hammer down over two years ago.
Not to forget the stupidity going on at our long border and the insane treatment of our border agents in favor of illegal drug smugglers.
Yes, George Bush is a mystery man and a big spender. His legacy will now go down equal to Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, Richard Nixon and Herbert Hoover.
