The deep state, Limbaugh asserted, planted fake evidence of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) to push Bush into the Iraq War ...

I love Rush, but this is preposterous. Nobody needed to push George W. Bush into the Iraq War. He filled the senior ranks of his administration with a bunch of globalist @ssholes whose only qualifications were their incessant clamoring for a U.S. invasion of Iraq for years.

Right. All this twisting and turning to defend Bush is - for the lack of a better word - pathetic. It reminds me of those liberals who are still trying to absolve LBJ from Vietnam: “Eisenhower sent military advisers into Vietnam. So it’s really all his fault.”

Pathetic. LBJ owns the Vietnam debacle. And Bush II owns the Afghanistan and Iraq debacles.

Absolutely. And the way the occupation was managed was horrendous. Nation building in the middle east? Give me a break! Grand hubris on display.

Bush is a globalist fool. A dirtbag betrayer for open borders. He created the TSA.
