    I couldn't stand the Bush 41 either, but it's hard to think of anyone who's been a worse President than his son.  I suppose Bush 43's twisted psyche demands that he try to outdo his old man, and f*** up so badly in the process that he makes people feel nostalgic for Poppy.  Gulf War I can be said to have worked out reasonably well, if you forget about the way we allowed Saddam to slaughter the people who rebelled against him.  There was also the misadventure in Panama, where we may have killed upwards of 3,000 people in our literal police action bust of Noreiga.

    Of course, neither of those things resulted in a struggle whose dimensions are still unknown to us, may last well over a decade, and end up costing tens-to-hundreds of thousands of lives.

    From now on, 41 + 43 = 0.
