Poll question: The worst George W. Bush disaster?
Edited on Tue Sep-30-08 09:10 AM by Mark E. Smith
There have been so many, and so many have suffered because of them. But which
consequence of George W. Bush's incompetence can truly be regarded as being the
very worst? New Orleans? Iraq? Torture? The banking collapse?

Which would you choose?

7. 9/11
I chose 9/11 because that led up to the war in Iraq. If there wouldn't have been a terrorist attack I don't think we could have been swayed into going to war with Iraq, maybe Afghanistan, but not Iraq.

11. Plame, SDI re-emergence didn't even make the list. Russia set up
as an enemy again, North Korea. These things will continue to plague the next president.
This guy has really left a mark.

16. NOLA and the Gulf Coast.




He was entirely apathetic to the death and destruction of an entire region at the start and then wanted to cover up his apathy with a series of lies and deceit that were later proved totally criminal. I hope the SOB is held accountable for his acts one of these days.
