Not if you know your ME facts. Which sect did we put in power in Iraq ? What happened to them when we left ?

And funny that all the left talk about is Iraq and how Bush destabilized it. What about Obama's invasion of Libya ?
Does that not count ? Did US foreign policy in the ME end January 2009 and everything since then blamed on Bush as well ?

According to the Left: Yes. According to the Left the Arab Spring and Obama's support for the downfall of Libyan, Syrian and Egyptian leaders, along with arming various rebels in Libya and Syria, had absolutely nothing to do what is happening in Libya and Syria today.

When was the last time you heard a Leftist mention the phrase "Arab Spring"? Answer: NEVER

There's a reason for that.

The problem was we went into Iraq without any real understanding of the deep divide between the Sunni and the Shiites. The Iraq war was doomed from the start. No one was going to walk away from that s-show a winner. We were hemorrhaging money from that fiasco. A fiasco that can only be laid at the feet of the Bush administration.

Do you think we had some way to prevent the Arab Sping from happing? Do you think we should have moved to keep dictators and despots in power? As I recall the GOP leaders were all over Obama for not using force in Libya quicker.

No kidding. Half of all illegals are over-stays. At least they have some form of background check.

If you don't open the money bags there will not be a war on any terror. .. I keep saying it n you keep spewing hot air that means nothing. There is not budget to spend,, if something happens before dec 11 the Republican Party blocked the finances for the govt to work efficiently. Mark my words .

Actually only 40% are visa over stayers. 60% are border jumpers.

Democrats and terrorists have common goals - exploit the US border for their own shameless motives.
