Dubya is a perfect example of the "Shit Happens" principle
There is no pendulum, unless we make one
We made one
Fuck the shit

as to Dubya, he has his future enshrined in US History books, right up there with Hoover and a few others.
In fact, the Hoover Family is tickled pink... hoover who?
:-)
This guy will go into that pantheon of American heroes though...

| 8. That's empire building speaking |
|
that said, there are some valid reasons to try to avoid leaving Afghanistan AGAIN as a failed state.
Now how you crack that nut given Afghani history is a damn good question

| 11. Yeah but 9.11 was classic blowback for what we did and didn't do |
|
(as the western world, not just the US) in Afghanistan after the ruskies left
We had a window to do what needed to be done after the troops went into afghanistan after 9.11, but we royally blew it, due to the incompetence that is bush
As to Empire... we've had one, all the way back to 1898... and it is dying
