Are you talking about the bases that the Saudi's wanted and forced us to ultimately close, and the total control we had over the Taliban, and Sadam (after all, with all that control, the UN was just excercising it's sanctioning procedures, not really meaning it).
"GW totally sucked, and still does."
Unfortunately, these absolutes you want to apply to GW work no better than those some want to apply to Obama. Your insistence on that, IMO, simply reduces your credibility on issues about which you post.
