I noticed that when someone spoke of George Bush's worthless presidency, many people provided a thumbs down! We all are aware of the calamity of the expense of the Gulf War. If so much oil was taken, where is the profit to our nation? We are going down, not up, and the war is only widening in the Gulf. The Russian fleet stares us down there. A failure is a failure, no matter who provided it for us. Neither Democrats, Obama, nor Republicans, George Bush, should be applauded for their bungles in life. We need a future, based not on politics, but facts which are verifiable.
