65. Invading Afghanistan was one. An entirely innaproriate response
to a crime committed by a handful of alleged criminals. Carpet bombing a country for ten months is not an appropriate way to capture a dozen or so alleged criminals. We only do that crap in defenseless, brown-skinned countries.
Ignoring many, many warnings about 9-11 is bad governance. Obstructing the 9-11 investigation is bad governance.
Obstructing the public's right to know what's in the public energy papers is bad governance.
Invading another defensless country, Iraq, against the advice of the UN, US and world population and all the world's investigative bodies is bad governance.
Deliberately ramping up terrorism and nuclear re-armament is bad governance.
Allowing his friends in the energy business rape and destroy California, without investigation or punishment, is bad governance.
Murdering 22,000 Iraqis just for the hell of it is bad governance.
Sending many thousands of US soldiers to be maimed or killed for a lie and so his buddies could make big bucks is bad governance.
Trying to overthrow democratically elected rulers to steal their resources is bad governance (Venezuala, Haiti).

What's amazing is that the evidence for all this bad governance is easily available and basically irrefutable unless you choose to live in denial land and worship the GOP.
