So the Bush administration failed?
Worse, looks like Iraq War was all a sham from the get go and the US Government wrongly imprisoned Julian Assange for like a decade.
Makes you pause when we are told we need to fund and participate in global conflicts. What are the end goals here?

The neocons are in which administration today?So the Bush administration failed?
While those were all worthwhile objectives and would have extended the ultimate life of the American republic by perhaps 50-100 years, there was no follow through. There never is. We seem to change political parties every four or eight years and whenever we move to the Democrats, we immediately shift from a (very) long-term time horizon to a very short one. The "I want it all now" crowd takes over and we forfeit whatever military progress we are making, so that we can start giving stuff away instead of advancing the cause of freedom everywhere.So the Bush administration failed?
Did it ever occur to anyone around here that including offshore, fracking. natural gas, and coal, that we have more energy reserves than any nation in the world. WE should be exporting oil and controlling the price.There is no doubt the Invasion of Iraq was a major cluster @#%k, After 9/11 there was so much goodwill and support for the U.S. and it was basically pissed away.
In the Middle East the endgame revolves around Oil.
