'second-rate' national security team
indeed
could they really have believed there were WMD ... after their first Iraqi War ?
and thought the second one would last only 3 weeks - Cheney and Rumsfeld.
Are you speaking about every European intelligence service? Because all of them beliieved there were WMDs. So did all the Democrats, until they jumped ship in the face of an unpopular war.
But Cheney is right. Obama has surrounded himself with people even less qualified than he is. And that's some kind of accomplishment. So State is run by someone with no foreign policy experience, other than visiting countries ina yacht. Defense by someone who never sat in a staff meeting. Treasury by someone with little to no background in economics or finance. And of course the spectacle of the Surgeon General being obese. That's just icing on the cake.
Baloney. German intel warned us about Curveball. Furthermore our own CIA knew he didn't have them and told President Bush too.
Bush knew Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction - Salon.com
On Sept. 18, 2002, CIA director George Tenet briefed President Bush in the Oval Office on top-secret intelligence that Saddam Hussein did not have weapons of mass destruction, according to two former senior CIA officers. Bush dismissed as worthless this information from the Iraqi foreign minister, a member of Saddams inner circle, although it turned out to be accurate in every detail. Tenet never brought it up again.
Nor was the intelligence included in the National Intelligence Estimate of October 2002, which stated categorically that Iraq possessed WMD. No one in Congress was aware of the secret intelligence that Saddam had no WMD as the House of Representatives and the Senate voted, a week after the submission of the NIE, on the Authorization for Use of Military Force in Iraq.
At least Bush has the sense to keep his mouth shut, stay out of the limelight and enjoy his retirement.
Cheney has to keep running his mouth in some desperate attempt to defend his legacy, a legacy that will never been seen in a positive light.

Incorrect, as the history of Truman's approval rating shows.

Was that supposed to be a refutation of what I wrote? It isn't.
The British believed it. The Czechs believed it. The French believed it. The Democrats believed it.

Presidential Approval for President Truman
So because Truman's approval rating improved after his presidency, this automatically means the same will happen for Bush?

The Prince of Evil?
Surely you know the man.
He's so evil he managed to live without a heart...for a while.
Then stole one when the time was right.
What did they leave behind?
No Saddam Hussein. Relatively stable democracy in IRaq.
No Moammar Ghaddafi with nuclear program.
Al Qaeda leaders either dead or on the run
Programs and policies to deal with terrorists so good even Obama has adopted them wholesale.
What had been a strong alliance of counties united in fighting terrorism.
Yeah, big fail. I'd rather have a nuclear Iran, a nuclear North Korea threatening the U.S., a resurgent al Qaeda in Africa, disarray in U.S. alliances, and an Israel ready to give up on the U.S. relationship.
That is right before your eyes. If you'll see it.
Two hideous wars.
Trillions borrowed to blow on those wars.
Thousands of American soldiers dead or horribly and permanently damaged.
Thousands of American military families destroyed.
An economy in historic, abject meltdown.
If a President with a (D) after their name had left this behind, would you be saying the same thing?
No.
.
Do you admit that Bush accomplished what I wrote, or was I making that up?
So was FDR, whose approval rating has fluctuated between 48 and 72 percent.So because Truman's approval rating improved after his presidency, this automatically means the same will happen for Bush?
The opposite will probably happen.
Truman was the exception to the rule.
The vast majority of presidents whose terms were viewed negatively when the left office were continued to be viewed negatively by historians years later. This is true from presidents like Buchanon to Grant to Hoover to Nixon.

I wouldn't exactly characterize your mis-characterized list, as "accomplishments" (fuck-ups is more like it) but-----but mac1958 already handed you your ass on that list.
Did you forget that Bill Clinton started our now popular modern day Drone Program in 1998?

Dick Cheney blasts Obama's 'second-rate' national security team - Washington Times
After the mess that administration left behind, give Dubya credit: At least he has the good sense to keep his fuckin' mouth shut.

That part of the world is as dangerous now as it has ever been, he said.
The consequence of a failed Bush administration foreign policy.
And as if the subjective opinions of a partisan, warmongering neo-con from a disgraced administration that left a disastrous foreign policy record has any merit.
You mean Bush, who took away Ghaddaffi's nuclear program and removed one of the worst tyrants in the middle east?
Or do you mean Obama's foreign policy, which has installed at least one new tyrant in the middle east and allowed Iran to continue their nuclear program?
Obama is the worst president ever.
What is my opinion? That Bush's policies caused Ghaddafi to give up his nukes? That Bush's policies unseated Saddam? I guess you could argue it was kismet or something. Go ahead.The consequence of a failed Bush administration foreign policy.

Your opinion. Mine is totally different. What would YOU do with Iran? Invade them?

Or Nixon, whose approval rate fluctuated between 24 and 67%.
Presidential Approval for President Nixon
Actually every president's approval rating fluctuates, and Bush's time will be remembered as a time of prosperity, low inflation, low unemployment. Especially compared to what went after.

Tell me again what Obama has done to fix anything in the last four years, except allow more people to collect Welfare, and Food Stamps? Was that the hope and change people were talking about in 2008?

Bull Puckey. President Bush will be remembered for 9-11, morphing(with the help of a compliant media) the emotions we all felt on that day into support for the strategically blunderous invasion of an oil rich Arab nation that was not involved in 9-11, tax cuts, and the Bush Recession.

Methinks Cheney needed a brain transplant too. Cheney is the most narcissistic, arrogant and meddlesome former official ever.
