It's more than tens of thousands. George W Bush is personally responsible for the deaths of more Iraqi citizens than Saddam and his cronies were.

All in his attempt to impose democracy on two middle eastern countries. This action has destabilized the middle east, and strengthened those he sought to weaken. This war on terror is almost as successful as the war on drugs.

This administration just doesn't get it. When Georgia invaded South Ossetia and Russia responded, our government was very quick to point out that it is not acceptable to invade and occupy sovereign nations in an attempt to overthrow the government. For some reason, they didn't see the irony of their remarks...

Right, only *we* can do that. :-(

======================

The one on which Bush started 2 wars, declared victory and 7 years later has accomplished nothing except the lives of tens of thousands of people, trillions wasted, allowed other more powerful potential enemies to expand their influence and destabilized the entire Asian continent.
