The crony capitalist socialist.

Putting taxpayers on the hook for something that ended over 150 years ago. Gotta keep that victimhood going.

Democrats are the undisputed Champions of Unintended Consequences.

And the Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals for Unintended Consequences goes to .......................................... yes, a Republican, George W Bush.

It’s been 15 (16) years since President George W. Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq. That’s when the American people were told that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (false); that U.S. troops would be greeted as liberators (false); and that overthrowing Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein would bring democracy to Iraq and security for the United States (both debatable).

Here’s what the United States has accomplished: As of the end of February (2018), the number of Iraqi civilian deaths sits at 202,757. More than 2.7 million have been displaced internally (2.42 million, down from a peak of 6 million) and externally (280,014). American troop casualties rest at 4,540, and with over 1.5 million U.S. servicemen and women cycling though Iraq, we’re looking at costs — human and financial — that Americans will have to bear for generations to come, with over a trillion dollars being added to U.S. debt.

And that doesn't take into account the rise of Al Qaeda, and from that group, ISIS.

Or the general political, social and economic destruction that has flowed through the entire region as a direct consequence of Bush's illegal folly.

Bush's illegal folly

1. It wasn't illegal.
2. Regime Change was Bill Clinton's idea (and Madeline Albright) before it was Dubya's and 48 other countries'.

Yes, in the words of Democrats.

Due process and presumption of innocence is only for LIBs.

So there were no "Unintended Consequences", and the Middle East is in a lot better place now than it was in 2003?

And it was Clinton's fault anyway.

LIB votes will be on record.
