We definitely won the Gulf War.

And we definitely won the Iraq War.

Here's how history will see this:

Bush started the war, it was difficult, but he won it. And left a stable, peaceful situation for his successor. All that was needed was to leave a small contingent of peacekeeping forces for a few years until Iraq was able to stabilize and train up a military. Probably 10 or 20 years. Minimal.

But Obama would not stand for it, and against ALL COMPETENT ADVICE, choose to withdraw forces precipitously, and as a result, restarted and lost a war that had already been won.

Which is the reason Obama now has a lower approval rating than Bush.
