I have a feeling though that the general hatred for bush on this board has nothing to do with his actions but rather that hes a republican. Be honest now, I mean hes not your guy now is he? So of course everything he does is irrelevant to you. We can find something wrong with any situation if we look at it right. Good and Bad, Right and Wrong, its all perception.
About the Taliban, we funded them so we wouldnt have to fight the soviets ourselves...stop the spread of communism and all that, or atleast try to. At the time it was a relevant reason to fund them. So I figure funding a stupid little faction is a lot better than causing a world war (by sending troops there) or by doing nothing at all or trying to whine at them in the UN. Looking back its easy to say they were wrong but at the time it was the best solution. With countries like Iran and Iraq though its pretty bothersome that we dealt with them. They serve no purpose and you can say we were morons for funding Iraq and Iran.
