Not just Bush and Bremer, but the entire Military officer corps. Don't they study this stuff in War College or something?
I remember when the announcement was made. I expected virtually every single officer in the chain of command to object to the idea but the silence was deafening. I was SHOCKED that they didn't get hard and immediate pushback from the people in the Military who's job it was to understand military tactics and strategy.
But yeah, I'm thinking that both Bush and Bremer were idiots, at least on this particular point. Again, we didn't even do this to the Nazis, and they caused us far more bloodshed. You would think someone in the chain of command would have looked at Eisenhower's blueprint for dealing with such a situation.
Unbelievable.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Jebbie, W’s brother? So, only two generations of Bushies.
The only silver lining to Mitt Romney being pushed out of the presidential race — temporarily, I hope —

Anorexic Annie is still enamored with Mitt Romney. Before him it was Chris Christie. Mittens is a LOSER Ann..... But, a RINO like you doesn’t care about minor incidentals like that.
Their grandfather, Bush 41's father, was a senator.
She got that homosexual hypocrite rhetoric right. (Funny how politicians and government seem to support groups that think like them) : “It’s almost refreshing that Jeb doesn’t even bother to lie. To the contrary, he’s remarkably frank about his intention to pass amnesty, calling illegal immigration “an act of love.” Well, sure — in the sense that someone’s getting screwed.”
LOL!
Because the chess board is being set by the Bushies and the Christies and the Romney branch of RINOland. The Rockefeller wing is all about amnesty. Who would they get to serve them coffee at the club? Frankly they are all splitting hairs and lying. Witness Orrin Hatch’s “replace o-care” BS. This has ALL been at the behest of Chamber of Commerce. And, truly- Levin gets it and has pointed it out.
The forced training of work visa IT hires by existing skilled American IT people who are losing their job— THAT is the story behind the amnesty and the devil details. Much more than lettuce pickers, mexes and others. This is pretty devious stuff. Little bastard Zuckerberg at FB is in it up to his lying neck.
I’ve heard before she likes to go slumming on the other side of the fence.
True. And she has said that the most important issue is amnesty.
It seems to be the most important issue on FR, too, so why can’t people keep their eye on the ball? Why knock down amnesty’s cleverest enemy?
Is it true though about Perry and in state tuition?
Yep. We are “heartless” to oppose handouts to illegals ya know
Yep Annie is Annie and I don't get her sometimes either.
But she knows how to wave a pen and make it sting.
She has lost her sense of humor.
Now she is just a bitter, acerbic old maid.
I did vote Romney in 2012, solely on the immigration issue. I flat out refused to vote McCain in 2008. Looks like I am voting third party again in 2016.
Big Bump, we (Bush, Bremer) totally screwed up the occupation of Iraq,
Looks like Christie has more legal problems. I wonder if the Bushes have anything to do with it.
And Coulter can kiss my fat butt with her skinny lips.
Lower expectations.
On his part, or her part?
“I’ve held that view for a long time; the only question I have had was it intentional negligence to cause chaos in Iraq and start a Muslim civil war, or were Bush and Bremer both idiots?”
I think it was more a case of believing their own spin. They had told us for so long that the war was going to be quick and easy, that we’d be welcomed as liberators, that they bought into the echo machine and stopped thinking rationally.
