>> This MESS in the Middle East was ALL caused by Bush, Cheney and the Neocons... That's total bullshit. Arabs have always been brutal, they've always been haters, and they've always been at war -- if not with Israel, then with each other. Bush handed Obama a stable Iraq. It was on Obama to keep it that way. And it is his incompetence, alone, that has put Iraq in the mess it is now in. Perhaps you've forgotten that one of the bloodiest wars of your lifetime was between Iraq and Iran. Later, Iraq invaded Kuwait without provocation. And then Iraq continued to be uncooperative in compliance with the terms of Saddam's surrender. Arab Spring was, IMO, an outgrowth of the Iraq War (well, except CJ has some idiotic theory about commodity manipulation!) and Bush's Freedom Agenda. It was totally mishandled by a president Obama that doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. I appreciate your views, I just think they're totally wrong.

>>"Obama may be an idiot, but at least he's not as big an idiot as Bush Jr."<< Did you read the Friedman interview? Read it, watch the videos and then ask yourself again if President Obama is an "idiot". Check out some of the reader comments also. And then ask yourself which prominent repub would you rather have. You can start with Palin/Bachmann and proceed from there to any of their "stalwarts" who will publicly deny evolution, climate change, any kind of reasonable gun control policies, prevent any reasonable legislation that benefits the less fortunate of our country, e. g., healthcare, but believes strongly that we can spread democracy at the point of an American soldier's gun to other countries and cultures wasting borrowed $Trillions, resists any attempts at sensible immigration policies, talks about tax reform and then votes against Simpson/Bowles as Ryan did but says "inversion" by American companies is somehow good and no doubt "patriotic"...and on and on... You are still getting the benefit of doubt from me even though you actually think that i-node character is "sharp?". nytimes.com You might also find the recent "Economist" interview with President Obama. I'm sure it is out there.
