THE TRUTH BEHIND JEB BUSH'S ANSWER TO THE QUESTION: "KNOWING WHAT YOU KNOW NOW WOULD YOU HAVE INVADED IRAQ? WHAT HE KNEW THEN My brothers administration is cherry picking intelligence and manipulating the media to deliberately mislead the public into thinking Iraq is on the verge of attaining nuclear weapons , and propounding outright lies about its supposed involvement in 9/11, In order to bully the nation into a war and occupation they believe will assert American dominance of the region. WHAT HE KNOWS NOW I can pretend that ISIS is Obama's fault when I run for President. Jeb: Yes, I would have

Sure, things may seem worse in the MiddleEast since 2009, but all the bad things are Bush’s fault, even Libya. Obama’s only been president for 6 years!

Actually, the rise of Iran and ISIS are results of the internal strife in Iraq caused by the early decisions of you-know-who’s administration. Cheney. Yeah, that was the guy.

OK, guys, can we make a deal? We won’t run a Clinton, if you won’t run a Bush.

It’s funny… When the Arab Spring started, the neocons were trying to claim all the credit – the Iraq invasion was the seed they planted! When the Libya bombing started, they wanted to send boots on the ground. When it all went sour, just like Iraq, it’s “Oh no, this has nothing to do with us.”

’Toon is simply a perfect analysis of the situation, boiled down. (Like the “w” administration should be, in oil.)

I like what the acknowledged dumbest man in Congess (Louie Gohmert R/TX) said:http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/louie-gohmert-bush-would-never-have-invaded-iraq-if-he-knew-obama-would-come-along-and-bungle-it/Par for the course for old Louie.

It’s projection; the severely Obama-deranged try to peg any criticism of their guy as a similar type of mental seizure.

Anyone who wants to pretend ISIS was NOT Obama’s fault needs to find a way to explain this:http://levantreport.com/2015/05/19/2012-defense-intelligence-agency-document-west-will-facilitate-rise-of-islamic-state-in-order-to-isolate-the-syrian-regime/“…as early as 2012, U.S.intelligence predicted the rise of the Islamic Statein Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS), but insteadof clearly delineating the group as an enemy, thereport envisions the terror group as a U.S.strategic asset.”

Personally, I consider Bush utterly vile, but Obama has handily exceeded him in undiluted evil.

What’s that old saying? “There are none so blind as those who refuse to see”? Here’s an interesting letter from a Canadian:" You Americans Have No Idea Just How Good You Have It With Obama…Many of us Canadians are confused by the U.S. midterm elections. Consider, right now in America, corporate profits are at record highs, the country’s adding 200,000 jobs per month, unemployment is below 6%, U.S. gross national product growth is the best of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. The dollar is at its strongest levels in years, the stock market is near record highs, gasoline prices are falling, there’s no inflation, interest rates are the lowest in 30 years, U.S. oil imports are declining, U.S. oil production is rapidly increasing, the deficit is rapidly declining, and the wealthy are still making astonishing amounts of money. America is leading the world once again and respected internationally — in sharp contrast to the Bush years. Obama brought soldiers home from Iraq and killed Osama bin Laden. So, Americans vote for the party that got you into the mess that Obama just dug you out of? This defies reason.When you are done with Obama, could you send him our way?"Richard Brunt, Victoria, British Columbia.
