27. Bush/Cheney bombed Baghdad to go after whom? Their faces appear on the deck of playing cards.

Al Quida was not allowed in Iraq by the Sunni controlled government of Saddam Hussein. Bush/Cheney had to allow an enemy to come in. The fight was now on two fronts. Third front is now what is being fought against: The Saudi Arabian Wahabist that sell, rape and pillage Iraqi.

Bush/Cheney certainly own the destruction of the social, government, and economic stability of the power balanced government of Sunni Iraq. These Iraqis and their followers were run out of Iraq by the US Bush/Cheney appointed Shiite government, just as the OP details to be replaced by the Wahabist Beasts. Bush/Cheney own the whole mess. Obama works to clean up the mess. Will the American people allow JEB to spill more ill by electing him president? I do not think so. Will Hillary Clinton continue to clean up the mess? I do not think so. Clinton voted for war even after Poppy Bush and Bill Clinton knew better than to invade especially after many studies of that possibility. Again, I find another reason not to be able to trust Hillary Clinton.
