36. Did you support Bush's foreign policies? I didn't, I could not be more opposed to our expanding war

Nov 2014

started by Cheney/Bush and to answer Rand Paul, I haven't gone anywhere. I still oppose them. So as far as people who are still outraged over torture and unnecessary wars, in Afghanistan, yes I opposed that one also, and Iraq, Pakistan, Yemen, Libya, Syria, Somalia and wherever else we are these days.

So, what is your position on all these Bush/Cheney Foreign policies, drones, torture etc. I remamber the OUTRAGE over Bush using drones. I am still outraged over it.

So if Rand Paul is asking ME where I went, if he's saying that I am a hypocrite because now I don't oppose these policies, I can tell him he is wrong, I am still here, still BEGGING for War Criminals to be prosecuted, and no, I am not a hypocrite, because I don't care which party is doing it, these neocon policies are criminal.

How about you? What would your answer to him be?
