These are the rants of an anonymous Left-leaning Libertarian. Libertarian views are generally socially liberal but fiscally conservative. I view George Bush as the anti-Libertarian, he is socially conservative and fiscally irresponsible. Unless you are a very wealthy person, religious fundamentalist, or a racist redneck, I cannot understand why a person would support George Bush.

Bush wrong about everything to do with Iraq war

The Bush administration was wrong about EVERYTHING related to the Iraq war:

-WMDs (They claimed Saddam had them)
-Ties to Al-Qeada (Did not exist at all.)
-Ethic tensions (They said there was no Sunni/Shiia ethic tension to worry about)
-Being welcomed as liberators (They said we would be)
-Cost of the war ($100 Billion was an estimate given . . . a guy was fired for saying $200 Billion . . . we have spent more than $300 billion so far.)
-The length of war ("could be 6 days, 6 weeks . . . I doubt 6 months" said Rumsfeld)etc.
-The Effect on Israel/Palenstine issue (They said it would help.)

Is there anything that they got right?
