I just finished watching Frontline's 2 parter Bush's War online. It details the the immediate aftermath of 911 and the beginning of the push toward Iraq from the neocons. The book cooking at the Pentegon under Rumsfield. Powell's UN speech. The invasion. Bremer. Abu Ghraib. The insurgency. Rumies ouster...and the surge.
What a shitty goddamn ride! I recommend that you all watch it. If for nothing else just to put the whole mess of horrible news over the last seven years into context... and to remind us all just how important it is we elect a president who is COMPETENT this time around. It took so many bad calls from the top to bring us to this point. It's heartbreaking and it makes me angry.
