(65,616 posts)History will not be kind to the Bush family. They created the biggest clusterfuck mess ever...all criminal and completely immoral, unethical and over money and oil.
Obama, like ALL modern Dem POTUSes has to clean up these ungodly warcrimes. I REALLY which they would stop and go after the BFEE. He has a lot of problems and I don't even think he knows.
With the CIA spying on everyone and Congress not giving two shits about doing their job, seems the POTUS is all we got. I wish he would prosecute, but if he can figure out how to get us out of the ME entirely...it will be a start. If the SOS can figure out how to bring peace to the ME, oh right they don't want his help.
WE can't stay the worlds police. I think it is turning our own domestic police into paramilitary units...too much authoritarianism and not enough compassion.
Best I hope for is he will not leave the next POTUS with a war. But we've been in Iraq since 1991. It seems we cannot just up and leave that place.
Our corporations got a taste for oil and now are completely addicted to the stuff.
