Final-Fan, Give Obama time, I am sure he will do as many things to piss you off as Bush did. |
What seems like a stupid decision at the time, may end up being the most brilliant decision ever made by a president. That's why basic History courses only go up to about 30 yrs before present day, because it is hard to interprete and cast judgement on history until it "becomes" history

I don't have the time or energy to respond to all of this, but I assume with the quote I left behind, you have yet to criticize the war in Iraq? I mean we still need to wait 20 something years before we know if it was a good idea or not.

We don't know the overall outcome in Iraq or the implications that going into Iraq are going to have in the long term, that is why some people think its a mistake to keep people there while others think its a mistake to leave.
I'm not going to pretend to know whether or not the Iraq war will ultimately have been a good idea, but I do not like the tactics that Bush used to get us INTO the war. That was an immediate display of character. He used our fear of terrorism at the time to generate popular support to help him partake in an agenda of his own. Whether or not the decision was a good one is irrelevant to the method of his actions.
