This is THE BEST article I've read on the Romney video fiasco

95. Sudan/Darfur is not as good as Bosnia Herzegovinian policy of Clinton

Get a grip?

Far be it for me to actually say something positive about Bush on a Democratic board. I am not a troll. I like DU. I haven't been very active in the last several months.

I will reintroduce myself. I voted for Howard Dean in 2004 primary and Kerry in the general. I voted for Gore in 2000 and wished we had a better primary in 2000 to flush out some of the problems within the Clinton Gore years that Ralph Nader mentioned about corporate democrats.

I was truly angry during the 2008 primary because of some of the knocks Clinton's campaign were landing on Obama. I voted for him in the primary and general in 2008.

That said Bush was better at telling us he felt our pain. He also had one or two moments in the sun with his foreign policy. 2 wars and torture is a lasting legacy.

Sudan/Darfur is not as good as Bosnia Herzegovinian policy of Clinton but it was better than what Clinton did with the Somalia people (i think the movie black hawk down involved this area). Most Americans would and did tolerate the starving and suffering within Somalia since our economic interest was not engaged in Somalia.

Bush for once in his life, put humanitarian aid and worked an embargo in front of oil/gas interests of American business.

Romney just said 47% of the country doesn't matter. The extension of domestic government money is foreign humanitarian aid.

Bush did believe in the have mores. Even in his grossly disproportionate tax policy, he did not use his haughtiness as a means to exclude aid from a poor country abroad deeply involved in a bloody war.

If my analysis doesn't have a good foreign policy grip, please take me a tour in foreign aid. Romney sucked on his foreign policy tour. I know that sneering visage will mow down more than just America's 47%. More than just Americans depend on government money.
