Then who are you voting for? :D

Just pick the one that's least incompetent, and right now that would be Bush. At least he did something after 911. Clinton would have sat in his chair and said 'it's our own fault.'?

Yeah right, and you expect people to take what you say seriously after you post nonsense like that?

What non-sense? Clinton had a tooth pick for a consultant, and a box of tissues for a Military. ;) :p

Yeah right, whose Military kicked ass in Iraq? Oh yeah, it was the one the Dub inherited from Clinton. Rummy thought so highly of it that he mistakenly believed that an undermanned Occupational force could handle the transition. So much for waging an ill conceived war on the cheap!

The strength of an army is inherited from its leader. Please don’t tell me you didn't understand that.

I would have preferred that Bush did something BEFORE 9-11. :rolleyes:

Red, you cant honestly think Clinton did good for the military. They all ahted him for the cut backs, "dont ask dont tell", and general laxnes of the military for his 8 year stint.

Man, you really do enjoy the hole your head is in. Some of the things you claim as fact are beyond beliefe.

Whether he did "Good for the Military" has nothing to do with what I said. I stated correctly that the Military that defeated the Taliban and drove Al Qaeda into hiding and who is now fighting in Iraq is that Military that the Dub inherited from Clinton. Prior to Clinton the Military was more suited for the Battlefields of Europe. Of course he is not the architiect of our new more mobile mordern Army, he was just the Commander in Cheif when it was overhauled.

If Bush inherited the Military from Clinton then he also inherited the problems that lead to 911 and the Iraqi invasion as well. At least he is doing something about it, be it right or wrong. All Clinton did was ignore it's very existence.

So much for staying out of this crap :D

No question that when Bush inherited Clinton's Military he also inherited it's shortcomings too.
