I condemn Bush for interventions that I believe were made under false pretext. And in fact I don't condemn him for Afganistan and continue to believe we need to stay there militarily until we can on the diplomatic front ease tensions between India and Pakistan (yes that could be a long, long time). I'm not even interested in "ridding the world of Gadhafi" because (here's the difference with Saddam) he's on his way out. The people have moved against him and it is a matter of time. That we would take out fighter jets on their way to strafe demonstrators is far from invading a country. It's not about republican or democrat, it's about judicious use of power. And yes, I think it was a huge failing when Bush 41 left the Kurds to be slaughtered. And yes, I think Mogadishu was perhaps Clinton's biggest blunder.
