>> I thought Nam was the single most disastrous foreign policy mistake in American history

I can't believe there are people who still think Iraq was a "foreign policy mistake".

They forget that Iraq went after the world's biggest petroleum supply in 1991 and continued acting out for 12 years before GWB had had enough of it.

Eliminating Saddam was an absolute act of genius.

To call it a "foreign policy mistake" suggests major league ignorance on the part of the speaker. To suggest it is "the biggest foreign policy mistake in our history" is just plain stupid. How does a person get to be that f*cking stupid and survive?
