Even if that failure is officially declared in 2016.No doubt if the war in Afghanistan fails, Obama will say he inherited it.

Thats what I thught you were getting at -- not any real point, just a meaningless personal attack on GWB.
Personal attacks are always meaningless, and are usually offered when there is nothing of substance to put in its place.It's not meaningless.
You can dislike it all you want -- fact of the matter is, GWB is a veteran.I am a veteran. I dislike sharing the term with some one who used the reserves to get out of serving active duty.

I was simply correcting your factual error.Interesting, so what exactly did my comments about veterans that you disliked so much have to do with the actual point I was making, that was of substance?

Any point you make based on a factual error is necessarily unsound.
I think that you made a factual error when you declared that GHWB was the last President to be a veteran, and that any point you made based on that erroneous declaration is necessarily unsound.So you think that knowing how to wage war is a requirement to be president?
Not per the Constitution, but if you're a Prez who wants to lob rounds downrange it might make sense to have some idea of what's involved.So you think that knowing how to wage war is a requirement to be president?
It was Obama's conflict. It has never been a war. It is actually an invasion of a sovereign nation if we want it all accurate. Obama said he was against the conflict from the beginning so I hold him responsible for any deaths and money spent on this fiasco in the sand.
Dear Leader must be presumed to know of these harsh interrogations, because Secretary Gates explicitly stated he conferred with Dear Leader over the firing of McKiernan and the elevation of McChrystal:
Of course, since McChrystal has been blessed by Dear Leader, the actions of his elite team interrogating at Camp Nama could never be considered "torture." Dear Leader's blessing is sufficient to remove that taint from one and all.
Afghanistan is still Bush's war, but a good war to wage. Bush was right to fight this one. I am afraid that the first war to be attributed to Obama may be Pakistan, and sooner than you think.

What branch of the military did Dear Leader serve in again?
