7. I was disappointed with the half-assed effort in Afghanistan
Kabul is ran by the US and the rest of the country is still owned by the war lords and a lot of those rule with an iron fist and talibon type dogma. It pissed me off that the US negotiated with those assholes and gave them their guns back.

It seems to me that the US is going through the motions and pretending they brought democracy to Afghanistan.

I never supported this war. From the beginning I didn't believe there was WMD. Hans Blix had no reason to lie and seemed very credible to me. I wanted bush to wait, but I knew he wouldn't. I knew months before Powell's speech to the UN that the US would find a way to invade. I loathed GW even when he was running for pres. I thought he did okay for about five minutes after 9/11.

GW causes cluster fucks where ever he goes.
