    I was offended Tony.......he called me special stupid. I think I am incredibly stoopid for voting Trump. And I am so happy. I heading to the bathroom to pull the lever and vote again.

    What would you have done if you were in his shoes at that time? Cry me a river for the armchair quarterback here.

    I was party to that little Mideast excursion, for 8 months out in the barren Saudia/Iraqi and ultimately the Kuwait desert. I support George H. W. Bush's decisions to this very day.

    Desert Storm map? Operation Iraqi Freedom? Your mixing conflicts with your answer. I think Desert Storm was about kicking Sadam out of Kuwait, which I believe was almost universally supported. I recall some even wanted Bush Sr. to go into Baghdad and remove Hussein, but that was not part of the UN mandate.

    As to Bush Jr., Trump was rather prescient in that matter. Look up his Esquire magazine article, discount the Howard Stern interview. Those were two completely different venues, one serious, the other not so much.

    But a lot of Democrats voted authorization for Bush to use any force necessary to enforce UN mandates against Sadam. They were so eager to look like war hawks heading into election season. Bill Clinton 'knew' Sadam had WMDs. The only fault in Bush's plan was that he no control over his successor. And the U.S. elected the worse guy possible (my opinion).

    I know you know this Will, but this is for others who may not. I still have a box of Seattle Times newspapers Extra edition from 1991 and the day after with a picture of the anti-aircraft rounds lighting up the night over Baghdad.

    I stand corrected and that is a much better definition

    I travel quite a bit and I have laughed many times at individuals that felt compelled to criticize Bush with absolutely zero experience of living through the Bush years themselves. I lived through the Bush years and did very well until 2006 when congress changed it's leadership to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, that was when the U.S. economy started to tank, the rest of the world followed suit shortly thereafter and many countries today are still trying to recover AND Bush had nothing to do with their demise. I did suffer as most of the country did after September 11th for quite a while when everyone was reluctant to invest their capital because of the unknown future.

    This country came together after September 11th and yes, like or not .... Bush was a big part of getting this economy back on track. NO OTHER country in the world could have suffered such a hard financial hit and come back as fast as we did. I can tell you this ... if the United States of America is doing well ... the rest of the world does well, if we are not doing well ... neither is the rest of the world, that is a fact. If New Zealand ever needs help, I would bet that our White House phone would be ringing off the hook and not China's presidents phone.

    I dont criticize or compliment foreign governments with the exception of those that I have lived under or done business with. I just lived through the most difficult 8 years of my life. I, like many others are worse off today then we were 10 years ago, that is reality not just a joke. I used to be a philanthropist until the government in recent years felt that they could spread my wealth better than I could. I vote for and support anyone that I feel has the experience and ability to lead this country regardless of their party affiliation. Stupid "one-liners" are not what most intelligent and successful individuals use to make their decisions to vote by. For me, the Bush years were great.

    When my bank accounts get a HARD-ON ... and I see them grow bigger .... that there is indeed orgasmic reality and all other pleasures follow behind.

    Time to go out for a ride .... later
