Is Bush's lack of a winning strategy in his recreational War, the principal cause of the economic decline ???

Five long years of driving in circles at a cost of $12B a week with no plans for Victory.

It takes thousands of Government employees staring at computers to spend that much money.

Update:

mbush40:

What do you know about respect and War. I didn't see you there.

Every single man and woman in Uniform wants to win.

    NAFTA is one factor,

    We are buying more than we are selling.

    Our jobs have moved over seas because of tax break issue via G Bush.

    Yes Iraq is playing a very big part in the downfall of our country as far as money goes. Our leaders could care less about the people because they have everything they need. It would be nice to see congress on a pay of 30k a year max. No insurance and then maybe they would get off their arskes and do something!!! We could have this happen, it would just take a building force of people to change the crappy politics.

    I mean we all ***** about our government but yet we dont have a leader for the people. I for one am working on trying to at least get the show started even if I dont lead the people forward. At least I know that once it gets going things will change which we need now more than anything!!!

    A lot of liberals used to argue that war kept the economy humming. Nevertheless, the "recreational" war will keep the wolves at bay for a little while so we can have an economy. Once the appeaser gets elected, we'll see what happens.

    "Recreational War?" No one thinks of it as recreational, except for maybe you, shortbus. If you haven't been paying attention, even the news media has been reporting that we're winning. The Iraqis have taken over more and more of the operations that we used to do and they are becoming more and more self-sufficient. I wonder what you liberals will do once the war has been won.

    Didn't see you over there either. Although I have heard that the army has lowered it's admission standards over the last decade or so.

    Principle cause of economic decline is the cost of oil, increase in government social program payments, lack of control to slow the economic drain illegal immigrants have on the economy, lack of decision making to get rid of violent criminals for good and just keep paying for them.

    I have a problem with you figure of $12B per week with 158,000 soldiers in Iraq, maybe per month or even year is the reality.

    I guess I cant blame you liberals for being so clueless about Iraq, since the media has gone dark on the war since it became clear that we are about to win it. Do a little research, the Iraqi's are almost ready to stand on their own, Al-Qaeda in Iraq has been annihilated, the war is all but won.

    Drilling in the Gulf,which in fact this century needs to maintain economic parity at home, will create the middle west parody unless technology and hydrology bail us all out.

    The purpose of Bush's "war" was to try to assassinate one man, and the mission was accomplished to his satisfaction. All Bush cared about was his own fear and resentment of Saddam Hussein; he doesn't care what else happened. He doesn't care that thousands lost their lives and an entire Middle East nation was destabilized...

    Our economy...our society and civilization...is built on cheap and plentiful energy, and the leftists have done everything possible to curtail tyhe production of energy of all types!

    Why?

    Because they hate us, hate America, and want us to fail as a nation because American success is in direct opposition to socialist theory and Ideology!
