for our dear departing President?
Will go down in history surely as one of the worst ever, ever, EVER.
You won't be missed.

I don't really give a f***, who cares who's in the whitehouse it's all the same.
I guess nobody expected Al Quaeda and the extremist Islamic loons to flock from all over the world and use the country as a religious battle ground in quite the way they did. .
Saddam had no allies in the countries around him. Iran, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Israel, Egypt, UAE, Syria - all these countries and more wanted to see him out. The Iraqi people (apart from his few close cronies) were also happy to get rid of him. The actual war against Sadam was swift, and the celebrations across the country from all ethnic and religious groups showed that the country wanted regime change. The problem came when different groups then started to claim power for themselves, aided by foreigners (principally, Iran and Al Q), which quickly turned violent. The British and Americans were trying to rebuild infrastructure and train the authorities to manage the country. The extreme violence from terrorists - mostly external - was indeed a surprise to both the British and American governments, the international community at large, intellignence agencies and indeed Iraqis themselves. They had no love for the foreign insurgents, as has been shown by the unity and success in getting rid of them in recent months.
And that is why he, and indeed you it seems are completely f***ing stupid.
