re: #447 Talking Point Detective

Once again, the fact that many in the Congress supported Bush’s policies takes nothing away from: (1) his ownership of the policies as it was his administration that developed them and controlled the apparatus of policy development, (2) his leadership in advocating for policies based on faulty intelligence improperly vetted, (3) his oversight of a process where contradictory evidence was systematically undermined (he and his administration’s spokespeople were on record, tons of times, saying that no contradictory evidence existed), (4) his empowerment of unqualified cronies to position of power in the post-invasion process - with disastrous results.

If you have a problem facing up to that, that’s your problem - but I have no idea why you would object to anyone saying that Bush’s failures shouldn’t be swept under the rug by preposterously claiming that the demonstrations in Egypt are some sort of outcome of his policies.

you are wasting precious heartbeats….argue with someone else who gives a shit while you backpedal…if you don’t get the point so be it
